About Richard
Richard Roe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 26 years of experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, anger, depression, addictions, and other life struggles. He aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Taking the first step can feel hard, and he acknowledges that decision as meaningful.
In sessions he focuses on practical ways to manage difficult feelings and to move toward what matters most. He draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy to tailor conversations and strategies. That means he helps people notice what matters to them, test new ways of thinking, and repair important relationships.
He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for strong emotion regulation and Client-Centered Therapy to keep the pace guided by each person. These methods are applied depending on the presenting concern, whether it's sleep trouble, eating issues, or problems with self-esteem and impulse control. He works with people facing caregiving stress, chronic illness, and midlife transitions.
Richard tailors the plan to each person’s needs and goals. He helps set clear steps and offers coaching when requested. He emphasizes practical tools people can use between sessions to manage symptoms and make steady progress.
When someone is unsure how therapy fits into life, he talks through options and next steps. He encourages people to take the matching questionnaire and schedule a time to see how the fit feels in practice.
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take small committed steps toward them while learning to live with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new, more realistic ways of thinking and behaving; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build healthier ways of relating to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and what feels comfortable. This is an ongoing conversation and adjustments are made as progress unfolds.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and keeping momentum when travel or time are barriers. Because session formats are not detailed in the biography, confirm current options before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to maintain regular check-ins, try brief coaching between sessions, and use session time for focused skill practice without needing extra travel time.
