About Richard

Richard Roe is a licensed professional counselor with 26 years of clinical experience who draws on evidence-based methods to support people navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, mood concerns, and ADHD. He emphasizes a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate stance while adapting interventions to each person's unique circumstances.

Background and approach

His approach blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with acceptance-oriented skills and attachment-informed perspectives to address emotional regulation, relationship patterns, and life transitions. Clients can expect collaborative care that prioritizes practical coping strategies alongside deeper exploration of relational and behavioral patterns.

Richard targets a broad range of issues including addiction, anger, sleep and eating concerns, self-esteem, career matters, bipolar mood challenges, and the fallout of major life changes. Additional focal areas include abandonment and attachment issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication and control problems, and men's midlife concerns.

He communicates clearly about goals and tailors the pace and mix of interventions to what best fits each person’s needs. Richard accepts international clients and offers sessions in English, with scheduling arranged to align with therapist availability and client preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and develop psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult thoughts and commit to value-driven actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines early and current relational patterns to improve connection, communication, and emotional regulation in relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on progress and emerging needs so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life changes. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support, teach coping skills, and work on interpersonal patterns without requiring travel, helping clients access care in a way that suits their routine.
