About Richard

Richard King is a Pennsylvania Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 22 years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and the challenges that come with life transitions. He also addresses concerns such as guilt and shame, forgiveness, men’s issues, and mood changes like seasonal affective disorder.

King focuses on practical conversations and goal-focused work. He creates a relaxed space where clients can talk through what matters to them. He is willing to include prayer in sessions when a client requests it.

Using client-centered and solution-focused methods, he helps people identify small steps that move daily life forward. Sessions often concentrate on coping strategies, clearer decision-making, and ways to manage overwhelming feelings. The therapist’s approach is conversational and oriented toward what the client wants to change.

People who have questions about autism or social anxiety can bring those concerns into sessions. He has worked with issues tied to life purpose and midlife transitions as well. Over two decades of practice shape how he listens and how he helps people set realistic next steps.

If you are considering starting, the usual first steps are a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Confirm the current session formats and any other practical details before booking.

How client-centered and solution-focused work online

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and following the client’s lead. The therapist focuses on understanding how the client sees their situation and reflects that back so the person can clarify what matters most. This approach suits people who need a thoughtful listener and time to name the emotions behind guilt or shame.

Solution-focused therapy looks for small, concrete steps that make a difference. Sessions concentrate on achievable goals and what has worked before, rather than on lengthy analysis. This method can help with everyday changes like managing anxiety, adjusting routines, or planning next steps after a mistake.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out what fits by discussing the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy day. It can allow for shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and make it simpler to keep regular appointments while juggling family or work commitments.
