Hi there, I'm Richard!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach is to help individuals and couples overcome struggles in their emotional well-being and embrace new perspectives and "tools". The goal of therapy is to grow and change to experience life and relationships in a more positive, wholehearted way.

My focus

I work with individuals and couples facing depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship issues, childhood trauma, ADHD, LGBTQ concerns, lack of clarity in purpose, grief, loss, and anger management. I utilize effective clinical tools and incorporate healthy spirituality in my practice.

My approach

I use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance, Mindfulness, Solution Focused Therapy, and Trauma Focused Therapy to help clients work through adversity and negative emotions. I make extensive use of outside resources like podcasts and readings to help you move forward.
