Rob Rhose
Depth-oriented work grounded in psychoanalytic and philosophical thought — for people navigating questions of identity, meaning, relationships, and difficult decisions.

Most coaching offers strategies — frameworks to optimise behaviour, manage time, or build habits. This work is different. It begins with the premise that the most important problems in life are not problems of efficiency but problems of meaning.
Drawing on psychoanalytic thought and continental philosophy, sessions create space for a kind of structured thinking that is difficult to do alone — the kind that reaches the patterns, assumptions, and blind spots that shape how you relate to work, to others, and to yourself.
Attention to what is said, what is avoided, and the gap between the two. Most meaningful insight lives in that gap.
Recurring difficulties in relationships, work, or decision-making usually reflect deeper structures. We work with those structures directly.
Intellectually grounded but never dogmatic. The framework serves the thinking, not the other way around.
Who this is for
This work tends to resonate with people who are thoughtful, self-aware, and dealing with situations where conventional advice falls short.
Sessions
Sessions are conducted via secure video call. There is no minimum commitment — you book as needed.
This is not psychotherapy and does not involve diagnosis or clinical assessment. If it becomes clear that clinical support would be more appropriate, I will say so directly and help you find the right professional in your area.
About
Trained in clinical psychology, psychoanalytic theory, and continental philosophy, with academic and clinical backgrounds across Europe. My approach is shaped by Lacanian psychoanalysis and a deep interest in how people construct meaning — and what happens when that construction breaks down.
I work with clients across the UK, US, Europe, and Switzerland. Sessions are conducted in English from London.
