Cognitive Analytic Therapist/EMDR Practitioner

I’m Richard Bulos, a qualified and accredited Cognitive Analytic Therapist and Integrative Counsellor. I am also trained in EMDR (Eye movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing).

I am a registered member of BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and ACAT (Association of Cognitive Analytic Therapists).

I have over 15 years’ experience working in the NHS supporting people through a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.

Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) is a relational model of therapy that helps people understand and change unhelpful patterns of behaviour which are derived in childhood. It can be a particularly helpful therapy for people who have had traumatic childhood experiences, and is a creative, compassionate and collaborative therapy giving people space to talk about and make sense of their past and how this may have influenced how they relate now to themselves and others.

Alongside CAT I am also trained in EMDR which can be a helpful therapy for those experiencing symptoms of PTSD (including flashbacks and nightmares).

I am also trained in Integrative Counselling and Low Intensity CBT allowing me to draw on a range of evidence-based approaches tailored to each person’s needs.

Throughout my clinical work I aim to provide a safe and grounded space where people feel heard, understood and supported to create meaningful change. My focus is always on working with you, at your pace, in a way that feels safe, respectful and genuine.
