Are you feeling off these days? Are there things in your life that are causing dysfunction? Well, if you answered yes to any of these questions, maybe it's time to learn how to better manage the parts of your life that are causing dysfunction. The only way past any difficulty in life is to go through it which can be intimidating, but you do not need to do it alone. I am here for you! My name is Dr. Claudine Richard, and I am a licensed psychotherapist and board-certified sex therapist with over 20 years’ experience helping individuals/ couples/ families overcome difficulties, achieve desired outcomes, and make lasting life changes.
My goal is to help clients cruise through life’s journey while helping them manage the twists and turns that come along with it. Throughout the journey, we will learn to embrace conflict/challenges, get unstuck while undoing old patterns, and better manage emotional pains which results in revitalized relationships and a new sense of self, purpose, and worth.
I know calling a therapist can be scary, but you remember you gain nothing if you try nothing, but you have already lost everything when you stop trying. So, congratulations on taking the first step. You have made it past the hardest part, now I want you to take a deep breath and recognize how far you have come. Next, I want you to call or email me today.
