About Richard
NY Psychologist Dr. Richard Tscherne has three years of clinical experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, career concerns, addictions, grief, anger, ADHD, and life changes. Sessions draw on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. He practices in New York and conducts work in English.
Dr. Tscherne describes therapy as a collaborative process. He focuses on understanding how a person's thoughts, choices, and daily habits affect mood and behavior. He uses mindfulness and breathing practices alongside conversational therapy to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
In sessions he often combines CBT techniques with a client-centered stance. That means looking at specific thoughts and behaviors while listening to each person's priorities. Existential ideas are used to examine meaning, responsibility, and choices when people face transitions or emptiness.
He also pays attention to body-related concerns such as chronic pain, illness, disability, and body image. These topics are discussed in practical terms - how symptoms affect routines, goals, and relationships - and what small changes might help day-to-day functioning.
Dr. Tscherne notes experience with intellectual disability, social anxiety, isolation, guilt and shame, and self-love work. He frames treatment around clear goals, short exercises people can try between sessions, and regular check-ins on progress.

How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. In practice this looks like open conversation, clarification, and therapists following the person's lead to set goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets specific thoughts and behaviors with short exercises and homework. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy uses breathing and present-moment awareness to reduce reactivity and improve attention; it is often paired with brief practices to use between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. That means trying techniques, reviewing how they feel, and adjusting the plan based on goals and results.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow quicker check-ins between in-person commitments. They also allow use of worksheets and guided mindfulness practices during a meeting so people can immediately practice skills with guidance.
