Dr Richard Waterman (he/him)

I’ve specialised in helping lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (including non -binary, genderqueer, gender fluid etc.) people explore and accept their gender and sexuality since 2014.  As a queer man, I know how difficult and isolating it is to feel different, but not have the words to talk to family or friends about it.  This is why I predominantly work with people from the LGBTQI++ community to explore and own who they are, in safety, and without judgment.

I have a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, registered with the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC: PYL040332), am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist with the British Psychological Society (BPS) where I am a member of the section for Gender, Sexuality and Relationship Diversity.

I have worked in mental health since 2014 in the NHS and privately. During this time, I have worked in the following areas: Complex Trauma, Transgender Health, Child & Adolescent Mental Health, Medical Psychology, Adult Community Mental Health, Acute Liaison, Memory Assessment, Older People’s Community Mental Health, Adult Eating Disorders, and OCD.

I am currently accepting new online therapy clients. 
Send me an email and we can arrange an initial Teams call, without charge, to spend an initial 15 minutes talking to see if we could work together.
