About Raymond
Raymond Ronan is a BACP counsellor with seven years of clinical experience. He draws on a long personal and professional journey, including major life challenges, to offer practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addictions or depression. Raymond aims to help clients find steadier ground and clearer next steps.
Before training in counselling he worked in accounting, corporate banking and senior management. Those years in business shape his practical outlook and his ability to listen without judgement.
Background and approach
He also brings lived experience of serious illness and recovery, which informs his understanding of grief, caregiver strain and chronic health concerns. Raymond uses straightforward, person-focused ways of working. Sessions are relaxed and conversational.
He encourages people to notice thoughts and feelings, try new actions, and build skills for coping with life changes and career strain. Common themes he helps with include relationship and family tensions, low self-esteem, anger, addiction, trauma and bereavement. He also supports people facing job stress, commitment worries, body image concerns and control or communication problems.
Clients can expect a supportive atmosphere that values empathy, honesty and practical problem solving. Raymond works collaboratively to set goals and adapt his approach as progress is made. He accepts clients from the United Kingdom and internationally, offering a mix of session formats to suit different needs.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Raymond will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit. He sees therapy as a collaboration and adjusts methods if something is not helping the client move forward.
Online options allow flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use visual cues for a fuller conversation. Phone sessions suit those with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can be helpful for short check-ins, ongoing reflection or when people need brief support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and health commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
