Welcome

With the seemingly obligatory coastal scene for wellness sites out of the way, I will begin.

I am Richard Parrott, a BACP accredited counsellor and psychotherapist based down by the sea in Ramsgate, Kent. I specialise in supporting adults through major life transitions, helping you find clarity, resilience, and meaning as you move through uncertainty.

Life brings inevitable change—sometimes anticipated, sometimes sudden. Whether you're navigating loss, relationship changes, career upheaval, identity shifts, or a sense that things are no longer working as they once did, therapy can offer a grounded, supportive space.

How I Work

My approach is warm, respectful, and collaborative. I provide a confidential, non-judgmental space where you can explore what’s happening in your life—at your pace and in your own words.

I integrate several therapeutic approaches tailored to your needs, including talk-based therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)—a powerful method often used to help process distressing memories and emotional blocks.

What I work with (not exhaustive):

  • Life transitions (grief, relationship change, retirement, relocation, identity shifts)

  • Anxiety

  • Overwelming thoughts, feelings or emotions

  • Low mood or lack of motivation

  • Self-worth and self-doubt

  • Trauma and difficult past experiences

Sessions in Ramsgate and Online

I offer in-person sessions from my quiet practice in Ramsgate, as well as secure remote sessions for clients across the UK and beyond. Whether you're new to therapy or returning after some time, you're welcome here.

Take the First Step

Change can be unsettling, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. If you’d like to explore working together, I invite you to get in touch. I’m happy to answer any questions or arrange an initial session.
