Vive Ut Vivas means to live life to the fullest. That statement is exactly what I want to help my clients to do. Through therapy, I want to provide my clients with the tools that they need to live their life to the fullest and to discover the potential they have within themselves. My goal is to work with individuals to face challenges and move beyond those challenges in a supportive, positive and therapeutic way. My specialties include sex therapy, depression, anxiety, family/relationship conflict, co-parenting issues, relationships (including couples and parent/child), and much more.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Sex Therapist in Florida and completed training through The Florida Post-Graduate Sex Therapy Training Institute. I work with individuals and couples on a variety of sex and relationship related issues. I strive to provide an environment free from judgment where clients can comfortably address sexual issues in a completely confidential environment.
I look forward to working with you.

She is friendly and kind. I feel that she does her job well as a professional and doesn't judge anyone which is how it should be when seeking help.

I got match with Valerie Richards (LMHC, CST) and I will be honest with everyone. She was wonderful in my option. I was dealing with major depression and stress trying to raise my 4 year old little girl Grace and dealing with my Separation from my hubby. She was great responding to all my messages in a timely manner. She was wonderful answering all my questions that I had for her every day online. She really help me deal with everything in my life. I highly recommend her to anybody who is looking at this website to help you also. That is my review today of her. I am looking forward to continuing to speaking to Valerie online in the future. I truly don't know what I would do without her. Thanks so much Valerie for being so wonderful to me and helping me anyway that you can.
