About Myke
Myke Richardson-Hughes is a counsellor who helps people facing money and financial issues alongside a wide range of personal concerns. He supports those coping with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, addiction and trauma. He also works with people dealing with self-esteem, career pressures, parenting stress and the challenges of ADHD.
Myke draws on eight years of practice and holds BACP registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He keeps language simple in sessions and aims to create a space where people can talk through what matters most to them. Conversations tend to focus on practical steps as well as understanding how past experience links to present difficulties.
His background includes work in residential children’s homes and learning centres supporting looked-after young people with social and communication needs. He has also worked as a substance and alcohol misuse therapist in a residential rehab setting.
Myke uses a flexible, integrative approach. He blends person-centred ways of working with cognitive behavioural techniques, dialectical skills and attachment-based thinking to match each person’s needs. He can also draw on EMDR-informed and expressive methods when appropriate.
Sessions can be short term or longer term depending on what someone needs. He offers support for a wide variety of life problems, including financial stress, and aims to help people identify choices and small changes that make daily life more manageable.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-based work helps people understand how early relationships shape current patterns. Online conversations can explore patterns of connection and trust, and what feels safe when relating to others. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in the room. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the person’s pace, helping them to find their own answers for issues like stress, loss and money worries. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and small behavioural changes. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and practical problems such as coping with financial stress by breaking big worries into manageable steps. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit with a person’s goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that may change over time as needs become clearer. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow sessions around work or caring commitments. If there are particular session formats you prefer, confirm the options before booking to ensure they meet your needs.Areas of focus
