What I work with:
I work with all the common mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression and stress, plus a large proportion of my clients come to heal, and get help with:
- Difficult Relationships (all forms): As a child, adult or both, you may have been bereaved, hurt, let down, unloved, left or not loved in the right way. You may have experience of abusive, controlling relationships with someone, or many difficult people in your life. We can work together to help understand, heal and move on from what happened.
- Complex Trauma & CPTSD: You don’t need an official diagnosis to seek help for CPTSD. Many experience a range of symptoms linked to complex trauma, often leading to physical health issues due to nervous system stress. With training in multiple trauma therapies, I can help you find recovery paths that work.
- Physical concerns: Chronic stress, early childhood trauma, and anxiety can manifest in physical ways. Many clients I work with experience conditions such as IBS, Fibromyalgia, chronic pain, PMDD, and Endometriosis. Together, we can address the mind-body connection, and support your holistic well-being.
- Dissociation: Exists on a spectrum and can manifest in various ways, from feeling disconnected or “spacey” to experiencing memory gaps or different personas taking control. I provide specialized guidance and therapeutic approaches designed to help you feel more grounded, connected, and present in your life.
- Neurodiversity: I provide support for those with ADD, ADHD, ASC, and AuDHD. My approach is tailored to help individuals navigate life’s unique challenges with understanding and acceptance.
I'm not here to diagnose, or focus on diagnosis;
Instead, I help individuals—whether they carry diagnostic labels or not — work through the complexities of their experiences, the lasting impacts of trauma, and the challenges that arise through being human.

Seeking Therapy That Goes Beyond
CBT and Traditional Talk Therapy?
Many clients come to me looking for modern trauma therapies that go beyond the scope of CBT and traditional talk therapy. They’re searching for transformative approaches that address deep-rooted issues and promote true healing

Who am I?
CHRIS RUDYARD MNCPS Acc.
Accredited Counsellor & Psychotherapist
Fully Insured & Qualified Professional.
How do I work?
I bring over 20 years of experience in mental health services, trauma work, and 19 years practicing counselling and psychotherapy. I have found that just one therapy model can be restrictive to people's recovery, so I have completed additional training over the years to improve my skills and ways of working to suit more people.
I work flexibly, integrating a range of approaches and theories, rather than a single model. People are all different, and I believe a therapist needs to be 'adaptable' to people, and what they present. The range of approaches I'm trained in helps me be flexible, and work thoroughly through it, to recovery.
I'm trained in therapies that go deep, are gentle, and are powerful which create lasting change. Some of the psychotherapy training I've completed:

Neuroscience & Psychotherapy
I used to think psychotherapy as an art.
The counselling & psychotherapy I provide now is a unique blend of
an art, humanity, philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience.
Therapies which are informed by neuroscience come under the
umbrella of 'neuropsychology' and maybe also be known as 'somatic therapies'.
Somatic therapies are more than just talking about it, they are usually 'doing therapies'
they work at depth with your emotions, physically, they can be quicker, gentle, yet powerful ways of working.
The psychotherapies I integrate that are considered 'neurotherapies' or 'somatic therapies' they are:
AEDP, Brainspotting, EMDR, EMI, Lifespan Integration & Sensorimotor Psychotherapy.
I most often use these methods to help treat things that require more than just talking,
such as:
Addictions, Attachment Wounds, Complex Trauma, Phobias,
Performance Enhancement, PTSD & Trauma, and
Unexplained Physical Symptoms, Sex Problems, Sports Enhancement

"I really understand myself a lot better after working with you, and it was so useful to talk through my problems in a safe environment with someone completely non-judgmental. I have taken a lot from our sessions, everything is now looking much brighter! If I ever feel I need any more support I will certainly get in touch, and likewise I will definitely be recommending you if any of my friends are looking for some counselling. So thank you once again, it has been such a valuable experience for me". A Client
