About Raymond
Raymond Ronan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He holds a BA (Honours) in Counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Raymond draws on his own recovery journey and life changes to help people find more balance and direction.
He previously worked in accounting and senior roles in financial services before retraining as a counsellor. That career change followed a serious personal crisis and a period of rehabilitation, and Raymond uses those experiences to relate to people facing major life shifts.

His practice includes support for stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and grief. He also helps with relationship and family issues, parenting strain, career setbacks, burnout and compassion fatigue.

Online support
Approaches for online emotional work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and shifting emotions in the moment to improve how people connect with their feelings and relationships. It is often used when strong emotions or attachment patterns are getting in the way of feeling understood or calm.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, burnout and major life changes by teaching practical ways to stay engaged with what matters.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of relating. It can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment worries or repeated relationship problems to build more supported ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Raymond will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest ways to combine methods. Decisions about techniques are made together so the plan fits the person's needs rather than following a fixed protocol.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different circumstances. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls need less bandwidth, chat and messaging can support short check-ins and written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with the same therapist.
