About Richard

Richard King is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 22 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and major life changes. He offers a conversational, practical approach and will include prayer in sessions if the client requests it.

Richard uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's concerns and perspectives. He listens for what matters most to the client and follows their lead while offering questions and reflections. This approach is often useful for people coping with grief, mood shifts, or ongoing stress.

He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, concrete steps that can change daily routines and thinking. That method concentrates on what is working now and what can be tried next, which can be helpful for anxiety, anger, and coping with life transitions.

Richard works with people who are dealing with compassion fatigue, social anxiety, seasonal affective disorder, and challenges related to autism and Asperger Syndrome. He pays attention to issues like guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose and midlife concerns.

Sessions are designed to be straightforward and action-oriented when needed. The focus is on making practical changes that fit into everyday life and on supporting whatever next steps the client chooses to take.

How his approaches shape online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what the client says, and follows the client's lead while asking clarifying questions. This approach suits people who need time to sort through feelings and decide what matters most.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical next steps and small changes. Sessions look for exceptions to a problem and build on what already works, which can be useful for anxiety, anger, and coping with life transitions. The therapist helps identify doable actions to try between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or adjust methods based on goals and preferences. That means starting with what the client needs and experimenting with techniques over time.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists and licensed professionals can also adapt session pacing and homework to match a client's daily routine and commitments.
