Robert McCracken

My heart is in promoting positive change in my clients. 

I do this by listening carefully to everything you bring.

Having worked for several years in the Charity Mental Health sector, I have a lot of experience in all sorts of mental health delights and difficulties. 

I have worked successfully with issues such as anxiety, depression, bereavement, sexuality and gender identity. 

Many clients come to me trying to resolve relationship issues.

I have had considerable experience in working with desperately lonely people, including those experiencing suicidal ideation.

I generally work face to face from rooms in Weston super Mare and Bristol.

I generally offer weekly therapy, other options are possible.

I generally will work with a client for a minimum of thirteen weeks,  although this is always negotiable as suits your needs.

I offer all clients a free half hour “get to know each other” session.

This will give you a chance to meet me and get a feel for how I work. 

I can answer a questions and address any concerns you may have. 

Once we have met like this I will offer you a recommendation of what I think will be the best option for you.

I work with you to promote positive change for you.

I have worked extensively with LGBTQ+ clients, a large proportion of whom identify as Transgender.

Identifying as Trans myself, I have heard many clients express relief in finding a therapist who accepts their identity and focuses on what the client wants to talk about and not focusing on gender issues that they have accepted.

I’m well into my fifties, and have been around the block a bit. I am proud to say that I have a young outlook.

I’ll listen to you and what you want to talk about.

If you have questions about your sexuality or gender identity, I’ll help you explore them.

If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, isolation, bereavement, relationship struggles or any of the multitude of mental health delights or dangers, we will focus on them!

I work face to face from my office in Whiteladies Road, Bristol.

My preferred way of working is to offer weekly therapy, although other options are possible.

Generally I will initially work with new clients for 13 weeks and review that throughout our time.

The first half hour session is free of charge.

 It’s a chance to get to know each other, and for me to assess your needs and make recommendations.
