Health Consultant, Researcher
Hi, I'm Dr Richard Williams, a Clinical Specialist in Stress supporting individuals with stress and stress-related health issues. I have more than 20 years clinical experience, including within the NHS and in private practice. My sub-specialities include health anxiety, palpitations, fertility and cardiovascular risk. I have postgraduate qualifications from UK universities including Bristol, Birmingham and Oxford, including in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I am passionate about promoting and supporting self-care for people to improve their physical and psychological health for both short- and long-term benefit.
My Approach
I believe that understanding stress is an important first step towards managing it effectively and protecting your long-term health. I take time to understand the underlying causes and circumstances contributing to your symptoms, before helping you identify practical, evidence-based approaches that are appropriate for you.
If you feel frustrated, overwhelmed or unsure about the best way forward, I can help provide clarity and a structured path towards meaningful and lasting improvement.
Stress is not a weakness. It is a biological signal that something may need attention or change. When properly understood and managed, stress can become an opportunity to support recovery, build resilience and improve overall wellbeing.
