About Raymond
Raymond Ronan trained in counselling and holds a BA Honours degree in Counselling and is registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). He has seven years' experience as a therapist and coach. Raymond speaks from a long personal recovery journey that included a breakdown and surviving cancer, and he uses that background to relate to clients who are struggling.
He previously worked in accounting, finance and senior management before changing careers.
Background and approach
That mix of corporate experience and personal hardship gives him a practical outlook on problems like career stress, addiction and life transitions. He says he will share lessons from his own path when it helps the person he is working with. Raymond aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space for talking through thoughts and feelings.
He describes his style as relaxed and direct, offering empathy and respect while helping people clarify what matters most to them. Sessions focus on real-life changes you can try between meetings. Areas he commonly helps with include stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family issues, grief, parenting strain, anger and career worries.
He also lists additional interests such as body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress and communication problems. He works with people in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Raymond invites people to start by completing a brief matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions according to his availability.

How Raymond works online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns with others. It can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment worries or repeating unhelpful relationship habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree a way forward together based on your needs, goals and preferences rather than prescribing a single method from the start.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Generally, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people keep going when circumstances make in-person visits harder. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists adapt exercises and homework so online work still focuses on practical steps and measurable progress.
