About Keren

Keren Richardson uses attachment-based and psychodynamic ideas alongside client-centred listening to help people facing worry, grief and life changes. She brings 12 years of experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression and self-esteem struggles. Keren explains things simply and creates space for honest conversation.

She offers therapy in everyday language. Sessions focus on what is happening now and how past experiences may be shaping emotions and relationships. Keren listens without judgement and asks a few targeted questions to help people describe what they feel and think.

Work often looks at how early connections influence current bonds and patterns. That can clarify why certain reactions feel so strong. From there she helps people try different ways of relating and coping that feel practical and realistic.

Keren also uses narrative ideas to help people tell their story differently. Reframing experiences can reduce their hold and make steps forward clearer. This approach is useful for grief, trauma, identity concerns and long-standing relationship patterns.

She works with a wide range of concerns including addictions, sleep and eating problems, parenting stresses, caregiving strain and career-related anxiety. Keren is registered with the BACP, which is noted as BACP in her credentials. Sessions are offered in English in the United Kingdom.

Her style is warm, steady and focused on helping people gain more control over overwhelming feelings. New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions that suit their needs.

How attachment and narrative approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at bonds formed early in life and how they affect feelings and relationships now. Online sessions let people describe patterns and try new responses to close relationships while talking through current dilemmas.

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. The therapist reflects feelings and helps the person find their own solutions, which can suit times of anxiety, grief or low confidence.

Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. Keren will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change as work progresses, with regular discussion about what is helping.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue and non-verbal cues when that is helpful. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when someone needs a quicker check-in. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter conversations, written reflection, or fitting therapy into a busy day. Together these options make it easier to keep continuity of care and fit sessions around work, family or other commitments.
