Everyone needs a Dr Richmond in their life. He listens, offers understanding and sympathy for difficult situations and he does so in a non-patronising way. He's easy to talk to and offers sound advice. He has helped me to recognise that kindness to oneself is not selfish but necessary.

Dr. Richmond had the uncanny ability to expertly and quickly diagnose “situations” in my personal life and in my professional realm . He offers valuable insights that I can immediately deploy in improving relationships/situations. He is kind and compassionate, also he is very intelligent. Great match for me. He gives me both the tools to assess situations and the confidence to move forward.
