Richard Rigby's Consulting Rooms 31 Elwood Street, Kenmore, Queensland 4069

"My connection to Dick Rigby came about following a life long search for someone who could help me. I'd had PTSD for more than 45 years and had sought help from several other counsellors / psychologists / therapists over the years. They either did not take me or my concerns seriously, or they simply didn't know how to handle it, resulting in misdiagnosis and mishandling. That all changed when I met Dick. Not only did he take my issues seriously, he did so with a respectful, humble and empathic approach. At all times he displayed a kindness and depth of compassion for human suffering I'd not experience with anyone else before. He was, and is, always dignified, a true gentleman. I found Dick to be honest, not in a confrontative "in your face" manner, but more with gentle humour, pointing out the human foibles we all share. He was always there every step of the way with me, giving me exactly what I needed when I needed it. He was there to steady me in my steps into the unknown, but I had to take the steps myself. He is a true master of his craft, and I can't speak highly enough of Dick Rigby. He helped me get my life back."

"I had been seeing Dick over the course of a few years. I had gone through some fairly deep depressive episodes and was struggling alot with my confidence. Dick was able to arm me with strategies to help me combat the negativity and vastly improve my day to day life. I now take on a much more positive and optimistic perspective. Dick is very professional about his work. With his help, I was able to finally come off my anti-depressants. This for me was a massive change. I regard Dick as a great mentor and general life coach and wouldn't at all hesitate in recommending him to others who are in need - as I have done numerous times already with friends and family. If you want results, he is the very person you want to see. He doesn't tell you what you want to hear, he tells you what you need to hear."

"I have been seeing Richard for several years now and have always found him to be not only insightful but completely professional. He has assisted and supported me whilst I made major changes in my life always providing honest and realistic feedback. Showing me both sides of a situation whilst teaching me tools that can be applied to my everyday life. I have nothing but positive things to say and would highly recommend him. Thanks Richard!"

"I have been a client of Dick Rigby's for just over 2 years now and my life has improved dramatically. Coming out of every single session with Dick, I feel as though something has been achieved. His years of experience and knowledge are evident throughout the session. I always feel like there is purpose and focus to our conversations. He approaches therapy holistically and tries to set you up long term. In hearing my struggles he has only ever been empathetic. I know I can be totally honest with him and he cares about what I have to say. It seems clear that he wants the best for me and he works hard to provide me with the insight and tools to control and improve my life. Personally I have found his efficacy to be amazing."

"I came to see Dick when I was going through a challenging time after being recommended by both my Dr who said he was very caring and several colleagues who said he was an exceptional Psychologist. Dick's consulting room overlooks rainforest so much more peaceful to be in than the typical medical rooms. He was warm, empathetic and I straight away felt welcome. Dick has been a Psychologist for something like 40 years and his experience and wisdom were evident from the start. He was astute to the challenges I was facing and his suggestions were just spot on when I tried them out. He empowered me to make different choices and to change the way I dealt with challenges in my life. As I went through this difficult time it make all the difference to know that someone 'had my back' and genuinely wanted to see me get through it stronger and happier. I could tell he actually cared. Over the years I have gone to see him several more times when facing challenges and each time,seeing him has helped enormously. My life is better because of him."
