HI I'm Richard, and I am dedicated to assisting clients in cultivating self-acceptance and self-reliance within the context of their world. I believe reigniting curiosity, seeking balance, practicing mindfulness, and remedying trauma are crucial components of many successful therapeutic interventions.
I work with clients experiencing an array of problems such as depression, substance abuse, anxiety, life transitions, stress, relationship issues, learning disabilities, and trauma, among others. Regardless of presenting problem, I aspire to create an environment that is one of safety, and acceptance for all , including members of the LGBTQIA + community.
I am currently scheduling with availability as soon as September 3, 2024.
