About Raymond
Raymond Guddah is a British Association for Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP) registered counsellor with 15 years of experience. He trained in the UK and has worked in community and residential rehab settings and in mental health services. Raymond works with anger among many other concerns, including stress, anxiety, addictions and relationship problems.
He uses psychodynamic therapy alongside cognitive behavioural techniques. That means he looks at patterns from the past that influence current feelings, and he also helps people test practical changes in thought and behaviour. He has a background in addictions work and offers approaches shaped by that experience.
Sessions are interactive and goal-focused. Raymond aims to help people develop clearer plans and build confidence to make changes. He brings experience from working with people in the UK and internationally, from Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand.
He works with a range of issues beyond anger, such as grief, trauma and intimacy-related concerns. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, seasonal affective disorder and process addictions like gambling or exercise-related patterns.
Raymond describes his practice as practical and collaborative. He will help identify manageable steps, clarify goals, and review progress as therapy continues. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts clients who are based outside the UK.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Raymond draws on psychodynamic therapy to help people understand how past relationships and early patterns affect current feelings and reactions. That approach can be useful when anger keeps resurfacing in similar situations. He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioural changes to reduce reactivity and improve coping.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Raymond will discuss goals and preferences and agree a plan together. He aims to combine longer-term exploration with short-term, practical steps so the approach fits what the client wants to achieve.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family commitments and reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed and can make regular appointments more manageable for people living far from services.
