My approach to psychotherapy is the time-honored psychoanalytic method, which seeks resolution of the deep-rooted, underlying issues leading to emotional distress. I have experience working with a range of conditions, including mood, personality, and psychosomatic disorders. I have particular interest in the psychotherapy of schizophrenia and borderline personality disorder, and in working with individuals who have not previously, or only partially, responded to treatment. In addition to my private work, I hold faculty appointments in psychiatry at the University of Central Florida and Tufts Medical School.

Making the decision to reach out to a psychologist is a courageous one and I understand the vulnerability required to make that phone call. As a psychologist, I try to create a collaborative environment where I help to empower my clients to develop a deeper understanding and awareness of themselves. I take on a more active role and do more than ask how something makes you feel. I can provide objectivity, support, feedback in a nonjudgmental manner, and skills to be able to tackle a variety of concerns in life.

I believe it is our deepest desire to know that even if we share our whole story, we’ll be seen, understood, and belong. However, instead we are often met with painful experiences that teach us to create masks and conceal our true feelings and desires. Have you been criticized or rejected? Maybe you’ve been made to feel insignificant and small. Or perhaps, like me, you were taught that you should be perfect and never show weakness, but now feel trapped by these lessons. In both my life and practice, I strive to understand myself and remove my masks by living authentically; I want to join you on your journey and help you do the same.

Trauma is one of those things that comes in all shapes and sizes. It can be one specific event or occur over a long period of time. The effects of unresolved trauma can wreak havoc on your life if it isn't processed, and you might be noticing that happening now. If you've been having some irritability, anger, unexplained anxiety, or other feelings that don't really fit the situation, it may be time to talk to someone about it. Trauma affects us in different ways, and if we're not careful, we can easily take it out on our loved ones. Working through that trauma in therapy can truly help you heal from those experiences.

Hi, my name is Richard Ehrhardt and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I worked in a well-known substance abuse facility, Turning Point of Tampa in their residential and Intensive Outpatient programs. I also have experience in teletherapy and outpatient levels of care in private practice. Complex times in society have increased substance abuse and many are struggling to cope. Unmet needs such as uncertainty, absence of love and significance, and lack of purpose lead to depression, anxiety, guilt, shame and substance abuse. You may be searching for peace, joy, contentment and love, but don't know how to do it alone.

My approach focuses on discovering "what happened to you" rather than "what is wrong with you", so that we can address the unique and changing ways that trauma continues to interfere with your current life. For some individuals, the trauma may be a single incident with specific triggers and associated symptoms. For others, the trauma may have occurred on numerous occasions with less specific triggers and a complex group of symptoms that have been treated unsuccessfully creating diagnostic uncertainty.

My ideal client may present with a variety of issues, but ultimately they are motivated to seek change and implement strategies discussed in therapy while in-between sessions. They strive to be open and vulnerable in sessions and are looking to be an active and collaborative part of their therapeutic journey. I believe that we are all experts on our own experience, and a client who is willing to provide feedback on what is working and what isn't can assist in helping them tailor the therapy experience to their individual needs.
