Keren Richardson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who uses attachment-based, client-centred, narrative and psychodynamic approaches. She has worked in counselling for 12 years and focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression and grief. Keren also supports those dealing with self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns.

Keren keeps the therapy simple and practical. She listens without judgement and asks gentle questions to help people name their feelings. Conversations often look at how past experiences link to present struggles so emotions feel less overwhelming.

Background and approach

Her work recognises how relationships shape how people cope. Sessions explore patterns in attachment, how these affect self-worth, and ways to change unhelpful cycles. This can be useful for issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency and commitment worries.

Keren also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe their stories. That can help with career stress, changes in life, and recovery from trauma or loss. Psychodynamic ideas are used to notice repeated patterns and bring buried feelings into view so choices feel clearer.

She is a BACP counsellor, and she welcomes people from diverse backgrounds. Sessions are offered in English and are available online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, clients select Start Therapy, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. Online sessions can help people notice how past bonds affect trust, closeness and self-worth, and then try out new ways of relating.

Client-centred therapy focuses on being heard and understood. The counsellor offers empathic listening and helps people make sense of their experiences at their own pace, which suits worries about anxiety, grief and low self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then adapt methods that fit their needs. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let visual cues guide the conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier for busy days, and live chat or text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities and day-to-day life.
