About Raymond
Raymond Guddah uses a blend of approaches to help people manage depression and related difficulties. He is a BACP counsellor with 15 years of experience in community and residential settings across the UK and internationally. Raymond takes an interactive and compassionate approach in sessions.
He focuses on practical steps that help people make changes in everyday life. He trained and worked in a range of services, including mental health teams and addiction rehabilitation.
Background and approach
That background means he is familiar with issues like substance and process addictions, bipolar mood swings, and seasonal affective disorder. He also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, low self-esteem and relationship or intimacy concerns. In sessions Raymond draws on psychodynamic ideas to understand patterns from the past.
He pairs that with cognitive behavioural techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours in the here and now. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is finding it hard to change a habit or addiction. His style is collaborative and respectful.
Raymond helps people set clear goals and works with them to build a plan they can stick to. He adapts the pace to each person, balancing reflection with practical tasks and coping strategies. He has worked with clients across Europe, North America and Oceania, and offers work in English.
People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that suit them.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Raymond will talk through options, listen to your goals and try different methods to see what fits. That collaborative process makes it easier to match techniques to your situation and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions use video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video lets you work face to face when you prefer that interaction. Phone sessions can be easier when you need lower bandwidth or a shorter check-in. Live chat and text are helpful for ongoing support, short updates or when typing feels most comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, travel or family commitments while maintaining continuity of care.
