About Richard
Richard Ingram-Hegenbart is a licensed clinician practicing in Montana. He is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - with four years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and career struggles. He also supports people dealing with depression and motivation challenges. He aims to make the first step into therapy easier for those who are nervous about starting.
In sessions he creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through what matters most. Conversations focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. He listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try different ways of reacting.
Richard draws on client-centered methods that put the person's own goals at the center of work. He also uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. When attachment or relationship themes appear, he uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds affect current connections.
People come for help with sleep problems, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and difficulties tied to ADHD. He also addresses issues like abandonment, communication problems, codependency, and forgiveness in straightforward terms. He focuses on what a person can do differently between sessions.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Richard helps clients set small, achievable goals and track progress over time. He encourages curiosity about thoughts and feelings rather than blame.
Therapeutic approaches for online work and practical change
Richard commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy when helping people online. Client-centered therapy means sessions focus on the person's goals and experiences, with the therapist listening carefully and reflecting what they hear. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior, helping people test new ways of thinking and acting to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try, and adjustments are made as progress is tracked over time.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions around work, travel, or family commitments, and the option to use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Because formats are not specified in the original profile, confirm current session options before booking so you know which ways of meeting are available. The focus will be on making therapy realistic to use in everyday life and on helping people try clear, doable steps between sessions.
