About Raymond
BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). Seven years' experience. Raymond Ronan is based in the United Kingdom and works with people on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and depression.
Raymond trained to a BA Honours level in counselling and lists Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy among his approaches. He also draws on lived experience, including recovery from a mental health crisis and surviving liver cancer, when helping people talk through difficult issues.
He helps people who are coping with grief, relationship and family problems, parenting strain, anger, career concerns and life changes. He also works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Sessions focus on talking through feelings, looking at behaviours and finding practical steps people can try between meetings.
Raymond’s background includes a previous corporate career in accounting and financial services followed by a period of personal recovery and life rebuilding. He says this history influences his practical and down-to-earth counselling style and his interest in supporting people through big life transitions.
He offers sessions in English and welcomes people from the UK and internationally. Costs vary by location and are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to small actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and making changes that matter over time.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of relating to others. This approach is often used for relationship difficulties, attachment concerns and related emotional patterns.
Raymond treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will work with you to identify which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences and adjust the focus as you progress.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people choose remote counselling because it can fit more easily around work, caregiving and other commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly adapt exercises, home practice and session length to make remote work practical and usable within everyday life.
