About Richard
Richard Hull is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. He focuses on practical support for men who feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or stuck. He also helps with relationship and family difficulties, parenting strain, and anger that gets in the way of daily life.
Richard gives clients time to explain how they feel and what is causing their distress. Sessions offer a chance to get things off your chest without pressure to perform. He listens closely, asks questions to clarify patterns, and reflects back observations that might be useful.
Sessions are 45 minutes long and usually begin with a quick review of the previous week. Together the client and Richard agree what to focus on that day, and may slow the pace when emotions feel tense. The end of a session includes a short check on what was helpful and any practical steps to try before the next meeting.
His work blends Client-Centred Therapy with practical Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ideas and mindfulness. He also uses Internal Family Systems concepts to notice internal parts of experience. Those approaches are applied in straightforward ways to habits, thoughts and relationships that keep someone stuck.
Richard often talks about resetting direction and purpose. He offers ideas for responding differently to life’s pressures and for rebuilding clearer boundaries in relationships. The aim is steadier reactions, fewer moments of overwhelm, and more confidence about next steps.
How his approaches translate to online work
Richard uses Client-Centred Therapy in a way that prioritises listening and making space for what matters to you. This approach helps when you need to talk through anger, relationships or feeling stuck and want someone to reflect back what they hear.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour. It is useful for stress, anxiety, anger and sleep problems because it breaks issues down into practical steps you can try between sessions.
Mindfulness Therapy offers simple grounding and attention skills to steady a racing mind. These techniques can help reduce reactivity and make it easier to choose a calmer response in heated moments.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help you pick methods based on your needs, goals and preferences. That choice is made together and can change as you try different ideas.
If you plan to work online, please confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy week easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also makes it simpler to keep therapy alongside work or family commitments while you try new ways of responding to anger and stress.
