Who Am I?
I am Brian Richardson, and I am passionate about helping people overcome the hurdles and obstacles in their life. I believe people can uncover the way forward to their best life, but sometimes need some help on the way.
I am well-trained as I hold a National Certified Peer Specialist Certification, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Clinical Counseling, and am certified in Gestalt Therapy. I am also a National Certified Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor.
Who Do I work with?
I am passionate about helping adolescents, adults, and elderly in individual, family, and couples counseling with a focus on Depressive and Bi-polar Disorders.

How Can I Help You?
My approaches to counseling include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Gestalt Therapy, Mindfulness Meditation, Psycho-Education, and Dual Diagnosis counseling.
I use a Rogerian (focus is on you and your experiences) approach towards attaining stable mental health and wellness. I believe an eclectic set of skills are best used to achieve and maintain a high quality of life.
These approaches and skills come together in a powerful way: I stay focused on you, your goals, and your path forward. My use of a variety of skills and my training and experience lets me find the most effective tools to help you find the freedom to be the person you want to be.
