He works with clients facing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, parenting and family issues, intimacy and attachment difficulties, and compassion fatigue, always approaching each person with sensitivity and respect.

Roy holds BACP, which indicates affiliation with the professional body for counselling and psychotherapy in the UK, and uses that framework to guide ethical, thoughtful care.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and learn practical ways to act in line with those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist follows the client's lead and supports self-exploration; this approach is often helpful for building self-esteem, processing relationship and attachment issues, and navigating personal growth. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences with sensitivity to how those events affect a person's emotions, behaviour, and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Roy works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and responsive to each person.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can take place by video call or phone, or through live chat and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit support into busy schedules and varied circumstances. These options allow clients to access consistent care from registered professionals and therapists without the need to travel, while keeping the focus on progress and connection.
