About Russell

Russell Morrow is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family difficulties and depression. He works with people facing big life changes and those dealing with ongoing health challenges, including chronic pain, illness and cancer. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Russell believes each person knows their own story and already has strengths to draw on. In sessions he aims to listen closely and follow the concerns the client brings. The first meetings focus on what matters now and what small steps feel possible next.

His practice draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on understanding a person’s experience and building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. He also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which looks at emotions behind relationship and attachment struggles and helps people change patterns that cause pain.

Over three years of clinical work, Russell has supported people with issues such as attachment problems, blended family challenges, codependency, communication and control issues, and the emotional impact of divorce or separation. He also works with those affected by domestic violence and substance use concerns.

Sessions are offered in English and he accepts international clients. He welcomes people who feel unsure about therapy and offers a calm, steady space to think things through together.

How Client-Centred and Emotion-Focused Work Translate Online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client’s experience at the heart of the work. It involves open listening, reflecting what the client says, and supporting them to discover their own solutions. This approach helps with stress, anxiety and feeling overwhelmed by change.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on emotions and attachment patterns in relationships. It helps people identify painful emotions and change the ways they react in close relationships, which can reduce conflict and build more secure connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can shift as therapy continues, and sessions will be adapted in discussion with the client.

Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to schedule appointments around work or family life, reduce travelling time, and allow check-ins when longer visits are hard. Some people prefer shorter remote check-ins while others choose fuller sessions; the practical setup will be agreed with the therapist based on what helps the client engage with the work.
