Raymond Ronan, BACP

Raymond Ronan is a BACP registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience. He moved into counselling after a long corporate career and personal recovery from serious illness and a psychiatric admission. He now focuses on practical help for everyday problems, including stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting pressures, career strain and anger.

He uses straightforward conversation to make sense of what is happening in people’s lives. He draws on his own experience of recovery and life change to talk about coping, habits and practical shifts in behaviour. Sessions aim to look at thoughts, feelings and patterns that keep problems stuck, and to try out different ways of responding.

Raymond works with issues linked to attachment, abandonment and communication problems. He also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image and sexuality questions such as BDSM and kink. He lists compassion fatigue, workplace difficulties and blended family matters among his areas of experience.

His training includes a BA Honours degree in counselling and BACP registration. He mentions therapeutic approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, alongside client-centred and attachment-based work. These approaches shape practical tools and conversations in sessions.

Raymond says he will listen, share what he has learned, and work with each person on realistic next steps. He offers sessions to people in the UK and clients from other countries, and asks prospective clients to use the site process to match and book an initial appointment.
