Find a Therapist

Richard Lovell

Hello, my name is Richard, thank you for looking at my profile. I am a qualified integrative counsellor trained in schools such as Person Centered, Psychodynamic, CBT, Solution Focused Therapy and Transactional Analysis to create a blended and bespoke model for my clients.

I understand that each individual’s journey is unique and therapy should reflect this. I have had specific training to work with male mental health and the unique challenges that face in modern society, such as work or social stress, issues around depression, anger and anxiety, relationship and dating issues, breakups and parenting challenges. I aim to create a warm, non judgmental environment where we can identify what troubles you and how to move forward in life.

My practice is based on an individually-tailored, integrative, relational approach with a broad variety of presentations, such as anxiety, depression, OCD, relational & identity difficulties and trauma.

As an Integrative Counsellor, I tailor therapy to each client, as well as talking therapy, I draw from a diverse toolbox of techniques, such as CBT, EMDR and hypnosis. Having completed training specific to trauma and trauma-informed approaches, I am confident in my skills to scaffold clients while they learn ways to overcome obstacles, develop coping skills, and enhance their overall well-being. Through collaboration with my clients, they can explore concerns, build resilience and cultivate positive lasting change.

Jeff Dawson

Are you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or like you’re just going through the motions? Battling depression, anxiety, or the weight of past trauma? Many men struggle in silence, but you don’t have to. Reaching out takes real courage – and you’ve already shown that by being here.

I’m Jeff, a psychotherapeutic counsellor and coach who specialises in men’s mental health. As a male counsellor, I get it – I understand the pressure to “man up,” the difficulty of opening up, and how hard it can be to ask for support. I work with men of all ages: young adults navigating life transitions, dads struggling to connect with their teenagers, and men processing relationship challenges, work stress, or past trauma.

My trauma-informed approach combines emotional healing with practical strategies. We’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck while building real tools for managing emotions, improving communication, and showing up as the man you want to be. You deserve genuine understanding and lasting change.

Claire Hadfield

My aim is to empower you to use the therapeutic benefits of the great outdoors and to introduce you to practical strategies that help build a healthier mindset through Coaching Psychology. Sessions usually take place on the beautiful Cannock Chase, 2684 hectares of coniferous and broadleaf woodlands, in Staffordshire, England. I typically use principles from compassion focussed therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, solution focussed therapy and mindfulness. I offer a free telephone appointment to find out if this is the right approach for you.

My training is in Transactional Analysis Counselling and Integrative Psychotherapy, and I have experience working with a wide range of individuals over the past five years. I aim to build a strong and supportive relationship with my clients, offering a safe space to explore whatever difficulties they may be experiencing, and utilising a flexible approach to be able to tailor the therapy to each individual’s needs. I believe strongly in the potentials of compassion, insight and self-awareness in helping people heal psychological wounds and make positive life changes.

Chris Madden

‘Something incredible happens when you open up to another human who you click with and who is trained to listen and support.’

The way I work is flexible. I meet you as an individual and will accept you exactly as you are, and try to see the world through your eyes. I will listen to you, really hear you and will be as genuine as I can, offering you time and space to find the answers you are looking for. I will not judge or critique you, tell you what to do, think or say, or who you should be. I will always meet you with unconditional positive regard, helping you to explore and navigate towards new insights and perspectives which can bring about a better way of relating to yourself, others or situations which you may find challenging.

Mr. Richard Whitenstall

I am a Gestalt Counsellor (regsitered with BACP) and started seeing clients in 2013. This was through placements at Hampshire charities No Limits (young people) and Cruse (bereavement). From 2017 to 2019 I set up and ran a counselling service with London charity Positive21 (HIV). I am co-author of “Strength to Talk” which is dedicated to men’s mental health with all proceeds going to the charity Mind.

Anyone interested in counselling can have a free consultation session (30mins) to ask any questions and check that we could make progress.

After that I work online via “Psychology Today Sessions” (encrypted video service) each session lasts 50 minutes.

The model I use is Gestalt/Humanistic theory.
