About Richard
Richard King is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 22 years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and coping with life changes. He also addresses compassion fatigue and related concerns that affect daily functioning.
He uses a straightforward approach that focuses on discussion and practical solutions. Sessions aim to identify what is getting in the way and develop steps to manage strong emotions and recurring problems. He will include prayer in sessions if the client requests it.
Richard draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and follow the client's lead. That approach helps people feel heard while they make choices about next steps. He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and build concrete strategies to reduce anger, stress, and low mood.
His work includes helping people struggling with guilt, shame, questions about life purpose, seasonal mood shifts, social anxiety, and challenges linked to autism or Asperger syndrome. He pays particular attention to men's issues and midlife transitions.
In sessions he talks through problems, looks for small measurable changes, and checks what is working. The aim is to get people back into their everyday routines with fewer setbacks and clearer plans for handling frustration and resentment.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist reflect the client’s concerns and help them make decisions about change. It suits people who need a supportive conversation to sort through feelings and options.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. In an online setting it can speed up progress by identifying what will look different after a few sessions and building concrete coping moves for anger, stress, or low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Richard will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. He will check in about what is helping and adapt plans as sessions progress.
