Approach and online therapy options
Richard uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, panic, and addictive behaviors. One common approach focuses on teaching coping skills for anxiety and panic - clients learn calming practices, breathing and grounding exercises, and ways to reduce the intensity of panic attacks over time. Another approach centers on relapse prevention and behavior change for addictions - this involves identifying triggers, building alternative habits, and planning for high-risk moments.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust strategies based on what works best. Sessions emphasize practical tools and measurable steps so progress can be tracked and changed as needed.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins or when shorter, written exchanges are easier to manage. These options make it simpler to attend sessions from different locations and on varied schedules.
