About Fredric

Background and approach

He works with adults facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and challenges related to self-esteem and career. His background includes extensive work in both inpatient and outpatient settings, supporting people with complex emotional and behavioral diagnoses.

Dr. Richmond combines a client-centered stance with cognitive behavioral techniques to tailor care to each person's situation.

He emphasizes careful listening as the foundation for treatment, helping clients identify what matters most and then developing practical strategies to reduce distress and improve coping.

Fluent in English, he accepts international clients and offers flexible session formats to fit different needs. Prospective clients who are ready to take a next step are encouraged to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to his availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Dr. Richmond uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive environment where clients feel heard and respected; this approach focuses on understanding the person’s perspective and building a collaborative relationship that helps clarify goals and priorities. He also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and to teach practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors. When relevant, he incorporates Motivational Interviewing techniques to help people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their motivation for change.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Richmond works with each client to consider their needs, preferences, and goals, and adjusts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy with him is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different lifestyles and time zones. These options make it easier to access care from Pennsylvania or abroad and allow clients to continue work on skills and strategies between sessions in ways that fit their schedules.
