More about Richard

  • 10 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPCC

As a licensed therapist serving clients in Ohio, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on addressing challenges like depression, anxiety, social isolation, and life transitions, with a deep commitment to affirming LGBTQ+ experiences and multicultural perspectives.

I bring compassionate, evidence-based approaches to help clients explore self-love, communication skills, and personal growth. My work focuses on creating a supportive environment where individuals can heal from past experiences, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful connections.

My therapeutic approach honors each person's unique journey, with particular expertise in supporting young adults, addressing mood disorders, and working through experiences of prejudice and discrimination. I strive to provide a safe, understanding space where clients can explore their challenges and discover their inner strengths.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
