Richard Papworth

Whilst I do not have any availability at present, I am holding initial consultations for clients wishing to begin counselling sessions from September, and I welcome new enquiries.

Please note, I do not hold evening or weekend sessions.

Hello, my name is Richard, and I am an online and telephone psychodynamic counsellor based on the south coast of England, providing convenient remote sessions to clients across the UK and abroad.

When starting psychotherapy or counselling there are many styles and modalities available. While certain types of therapy can be considered more suitable for particular issues, often the determining factor is personal preference. Psychodynamic counselling has a distinct focus on events which have troubled us in the past, although we might not have awareness of them, and continue to trouble us in the present often through repeated patterns.

There might not be any defined areas of concern for clients, and issues can be deep-seated; however, the therapeutic relationship aims to bring these aspects into consciousness in a manageable way so that they may be worked through safely. While psychodynamic counselling is often open-ended and can span several years, short courses of six months or less have also shown to be effective.

As a trained psychodynamic counsellor, I offer a confidential, welcoming, and non-judgemental space to talk about what you are finding difficult in your life. My skills as a therapist are supported by my background working across a diverse range of mental health and caring environments, and I am experienced in working with clients with stress, depression, anxiety, and feelings of being angry, upset, stuck, or confused. I believe that the working relationship is key to productive therapy, and through a compassionate approach I can help you to explore issues at your own pace to understand and express yourself more fully.

I am a registered member of the BACP, with my practice underpinned by professional ethics, ongoing supervision, and continual professional development.

I also hold clean, enhanced DBS certification for working with children and adults and am subscribed to the DBS Update Service.

I work to the practice of weekly 50-minute sessions, held on the same day and at the same time each week. I believe that the reliability and consistency that comes with having regular sessions in this way is an important part of the therapeutic frame. However, there is no set number of counselling sessions, instead they take the form an ongoing arrangement. The fee for each counselling session is £50, whilst I also hold a limited number of concessionary spaces for those on low incomes where the fee for each counselling session is £30.

Our first meeting will be an initial consultation, which is a combined assessment and 'getting-to-know-you' session. It will be used both to discuss why you are looking for therapy now and what you would like to talk about, and also for us to see how we work together. It is important that when you are engaging in therapy your needs are being met, and finding the right therapist for you is integral to that.

The fee for these 50 minute initial consultations is £25, with there being no obligation to take up further sessions. If we feel that we have a good therapeutic ‘fit’ and you would like to arrange ongoing sessions, we can do so on the day; however, you may feel that you need to take more time to think it over, and it is important that you feel comfortable with your decision.

I hope that this brief overview provides enough guidance to help you make an informed choice, but if you find you have any questions please do get in contact and I will be happy to help.
