Richard King, LPC

Richard King is an LPC with 22 years of professional experience working in Pennsylvania. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and big life transitions. He aims to create an open, respectful space where clients can talk honestly and find practical steps forward.

He uses client-centered methods that focus on listening and responding to each person's needs. That approach prioritizes the client's perspective and helps people feel heard while they sort through difficult feelings. He also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, concrete changes that can make daily life more manageable.

Richard is willing to include prayer in sessions when a client requests it, and he respects the role faith can play in some people's healing. He works with issues such as compassion fatigue, guilt and shame, life purpose, and men’s concerns. Midlife crisis and mood conditions like Seasonal Affective Disorder are also among his focus areas.

In sessions he aims for clarity and straightforward steps rather than abstract theory. Conversations often move from listening to trying practical adjustments that fit the client's routine. Progress is tracked by looking at what changes make everyday life easier.

People who value a calm, listening style alongside practical short-term goals may find his approach helpful. He practices in Pennsylvania and conducts sessions in English.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead. In practice this means the therapist focuses on understanding what matters most to the person and responds to those priorities, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, achievable steps that move daily life forward; it is useful when someone wants practical changes rather than long-term analysis.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide whether to lean more on listening and reflection or on solution-focused goals. Preferences, needs, and concrete life tasks guide that choice rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

If you're thinking about online work, confirm current session formats before booking since specific options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also make it possible to try techniques in real-life settings and then discuss how those changes felt during the next meeting. Licensed professionals can adapt both client-centered and solution-focused methods to remote sessions to keep the work practical and focused on real-life outcomes.
