Mara Richards

I am insured to offer visiting therapy for people with access challenges. Please enquire for more details.

Would you appreciate a listening ear and a chance to explore your feelings in confidence? It may seem daunting to begin therapy but this can be a positive way to start addressing the challenges that we all encounter in life. From the first session, I give you the opportunity to collect your thoughts and explore your feelings, at a pace that feels right for you. The opportunity to express your feelings can help start a process of self-acceptance and compassion towards where you have been in life. In time, an increased sense of self-worth can give you renewed hope and zest to face your future.

My background is as a qualified nurse for the past 25+ years. As a nurse, building a therapeutic relationship with a client is something I relish, but in today's NHS, and particularly in recent times, opportunities for this are getting scarce. I find  working as a psychotherapist rewarding, because forging therapeutic relationships is the essence of our work together.

My practice rooms are in Central Bath and in Newbridge, with wheelchair-accessible space available in both locations. I will have space from August 2026 and welcome your enquiry.
