About John

John Goodrick is a therapeutic counsellor based in England with ten years of professional experience. He is registered with the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists) and holds a Diploma in therapeutic counselling, a BSc Hons in Sociology, and a Postgraduate Diploma in Careers Guidance. His background includes more than ten years working within a mental health setting, a period that shaped his interest in helping people make sense of where they are in life and supported his decision to train clinically.

John works with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and sleeping problems, parenting, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes. He also addresses related areas such as body image, communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, jealousy, life purpose, men's issues, mood disorders, panic attacks, paranoia, personality disorders, self-love, and social anxiety.

He aims to create an open, non-judgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored with clarity and respect. John emphasizes an approachable, easy to understand style that avoids patronising language, supporting people as they take the courageous first steps toward greater well-being and more satisfying choices in life.

Evidence-based techniques and flexible online support

John uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people understand and work with their thoughts and feelings, alongside practical strategies that build day-to-day coping skills. Techniques that explore how thinking patterns influence emotions can help with anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem, while practical skills-oriented work supports managing stress, sleep, routines, and addictive behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and John works collaboratively with each person to identify what fits best with their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors the balance between reflective exploration and hands-on skills work so the plan evolves as the client progresses.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter or ongoing contact can be maintained through live chat and text-based messaging. This range of options helps people fit therapy into busy lives, access support from different locations, and maintain continuity between sessions while working with registered professionals and therapists experienced in remote care.
