About Raymond
Raymond Ronan brings seven years of experience to his counselling practice. He holds a BACP credential, a BA Honours degree in Counselling and is based in the United Kingdom. His own life journey through career change, serious illness and recovery informs the way he supports people now.
He writes plainly and works in a relaxed, non-judgemental way. Sessions focus on talking through what matters and finding practical steps to change thoughts, feelings and behaviours. He aims to create space where clients can be honest and feel understood.
Raymond draws on a mix of approaches to suit different needs. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and build coping skills. He also applies Attachment-Based and client-centred ideas to help people feel heard and connected.
His practice covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and grief. He also supports people dealing with relationship and family difficulties, parenting strain, career problems and long-term health issues such as cancer and chronic illness.
People who choose him often want a therapist who has navigated major life setbacks and come through them. He speaks English and works with clients in the UK and internationally. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their needs.
How Raymond uses different approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them and focus on actions that matter. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with change.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression and stress.
Attachment-Based ideas and a client-centred stance mean sessions pay attention to how relationships shape feelings and to giving the person a listening space. This approach can help with trust, self-worth and long-standing relationship patterns.
Choosing the right approach is a shared task. Raymond will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. He reviews progress and adjusts the plan so therapy stays relevant and useful.
If you are considering online work, please confirm the session formats available before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help them keep continuity of care and maintain momentum between appointments.
