What I liked about Mr. Richard is that I believe in my heart that he’s a really good man. I think that is very important when trying to find a therapist. As I talk to him, I really feels he cares about my well-being and he’s helping me to get to a place to be content and happy and forces me to see beyond today and what my future could be. I’m very appreciative of how he works with me. Each week after our sessions I feel better and more positive about my situation.

Richard is very thoughtful and provides time for me to express concerns that I have about things that are on my mind. He is also very patient and doesn't trivialize my concerns. He also enjoys my humor which I am about to let loose at times during our discussions.
