Richard King

Richard King is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Pennsylvania with 22 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and major life changes. He aims to create a calm, open space where people can talk and look for practical ways forward.

He uses a client-centered approach, which means conversations start with the person's priorities and experiences. He also draws on solution-focused methods to identify concrete steps that can help day-to-day functioning. Sessions often emphasize short-term goals and skills that a person can try between meetings.

He is willing to include prayer in sessions when a client requests it, and he respects each person's values and beliefs. His work also touches on compassion fatigue, mood concerns such as seasonal affective disorder, and social anxiety. Additional topics he addresses include forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, and men's issues.

Richard has spent many years helping people find steady routines and clearer coping strategies. He talks through options, suggests small experiments, and helps people notice what changes make life easier. People who want a straightforward, practical focus may find this approach helpful.

For those thinking about starting, he asks clients to identify their main concern and goals so sessions can move toward workable solutions. The first conversations are used to build trust and map out next steps together.

How client-centered and solution-focused work online can help

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens closely, reflects what they hear, and follows the client's lead to build understanding and trust. This approach helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings like anger, grief, or confusion.

Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on practical steps and small goals. It looks for what already works and helps people try brief experiments to change routines or reactions. This can be useful for stress, anxiety, and daily coping strategies where clear next steps matter.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will help figure out which method, or blend of methods, matches the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Conversations in the first sessions focus on what the client wants to achieve and how to set realistic, measurable steps.

Confirm the available session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try different ways of meeting to see what feels most practical for their life.
