About Russell

Russell Morrow works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression and coping with life changes, using client-centred and emotionally focused ways of working. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience.

Russell welcomes straightforward conversations about what is troubling someone. He approaches sessions by listening first, then helping people identify their own strengths and options. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than long expert explanations.

His practice often addresses attachment difficulties and the strains that come with blended family arrangements. He also supports people facing chronic illness, cancer, chronic pain and related changes in daily life. Issues around codependency, commitment, control and communication appear frequently in his work.

Russell also works with people affected by divorce and separation, domestic violence, substance misuse and coping after natural or human-caused disasters. He pays attention to fatherhood concerns and wider family problems when these come up in conversation.

In sessions he uses Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the person’s perspective and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help with patterns in relationships and emotions. Russell aims to help people notice patterns, try different responses and practise new ways of relating in everyday life.

How his approaches work in online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and strengths. The counsellor listens without directing, helping the person make sense of their situation and choose next steps. It is useful for stress, low mood and dealing with life changes.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and how emotions shape interactions. It helps people recognise recurring cycles, name their feelings and try different responses in relationships and family situations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Russell will discuss options and together decide which methods fit the person's goals and preferences. That choice is reviewed as the sessions progress, and methods can be adjusted based on what helps most.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as these are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit those who prefer not to use a camera or who need lower bandwidth options.
