Richard Soper

My communication style

I work to create a non-judgmental and affirming environment where you can explore, process, and feel. Initial sessions may feel structured, but as we progress, the experience becomes more conversational, with room for insight and skills building.

My goals for you

I place emphasis on setting and reviewing goals. As we work together, I revise your treatment plan to reflect what I know about you, what you want, and what skills might help you get there. If things stagnate, we review the progress you've made and embrace proof of your ability to grow.

Our first session

I conduct an assessment during the first session. This is mostly me listening to you and asking for more details about the important issues. I take a whole person approach, so I may ask about your past, health, and employment to understand how I can be helpful.
