More about Richard

  • 6 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

Hi, I’m Rich a fantasy nerd, adrenaline junky, and gamer. I am also an experienced counselor who offers a grounded, experiential approach to therapy and coaching. I have extensive experience working with clients through life transitions, identity formation, confidence building, and anxiety. My time in the outdoor industry teaching snowboarding, climbing, and backpacking has shown me that people are capable of a lot more then they know. My goal is to share these lessons with you and help you become the person you want to be.

My style is collaborative at its foundation and my goal is to make the process as approachable as possible. I use mindful and nature informed techniques to help change our relationship with our thoughts and help build a relationship with the natural world to help in the healing process.

Therapy is weird, vulnerable, and a little awkward to start. Reaching out is the first step to that and one that I try to make easier by just connecting as a fellow human and not a professional robot. Thanks for reading and hope to talk to you soon.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
