Person-Centred Counselling Where You Matter Most
Chesworth Counselling offers a warm, friendly environment focused on your personal wellbeing. I value creating a non-intimidating, approachable space where every individual receives care tailored to their unique journey toward mental wellness.

Counselling
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, but you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I provide a safe, confidential, and entirely non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace.
My approach is deeply collaborative. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you as we uncover your innate capacity for healing and growth. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, navigating a difficult life transition, or simply feeling stuck, we will work together to help you find clarity and a firmer sense of grounding.
As a Registered Member of the BACP, I practice in strict accordance with their Ethical Framework, ensuring that your well-being, safety, and confidentiality are at the heart of our work together.
Getting Started
You don't need to know where to start. We can start wherever you are.
There is no timetable for personal growth, and no single right way forward.
I won't tell you how to live your life. I'll offer a space to explore what matters to you.
Counselling is a conversation, not a test you have to pass.
You are more than the difficulties you're facing, and your experience deserves to be understood on its own terms.
About me
My name is Richard and I am a qualified counsellor with a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling, and I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to feel heard, understood and accepted without judgement. My approach is person-centred, which means that I recognise you as the expert in your own life. I aim to provide a safe, supportive and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace. I believe that a genuine therapeutic relationship, built on empathy, respect and understanding, can help people develop greater self-awareness, explore difficult emotions and find their own way forward.
As the person behind Chesworth Counselling, I understand that taking the first step towards counselling can feel daunting. You don't need to know exactly what you want to say or have all the answers before you begin. My role is to listen, understand your individual circumstances and work alongside you in a way that respects your choices and experiences. Chesworth Counselling is built around the belief that personal growth happens in its own time, and that everyone deserves the space and support to find their own path. I am based in [your town or area], offering [online and/or face-to-face] counselling to suit your needs.
