It's time to stop managing and start healing.

Sound familiar?

You've gone as far
as you can by yourself.

  • The quiet weight of carrying everyone else — when was the last time someone asked how you were doing?
  • A life that looks right from the outside. A feeling inside that something essential is missing.
  • The version of you that snaps, shuts down, or disappears — and the guilt that follows every time.
  • The loop of convincing yourself you're fine. The nagging feeling you're not.
  • You know something needs to change. You just can't see what it is yet.

How I work

Specialties

01

EMDR Therapy

My primary modality. EMDR helps the brain reprocess memories that got stuck — the ones still running your present from underneath. A proven, evidence-based path through trauma, anxiety, and the loops that won't quiet down on their own.

02

Brainspotting

When talk therapy hits its ceiling, Brainspotting reaches the places words can't. It gets past the story and into where the tension actually lives in the body. Where you look affects how you feel.

03

Men's Therapy

Therapy built for men who are done white-knuckling it. We go beneath the surface — anger, disconnection, people-pleasing — and help you find your voice in the relationships that matter.

04

Trauma & Attachment

Trauma isn't what happened to you — it's what happened within you. A hundred people can walk through the same event and come out completely differently. That's why the work is personal. And why it works.

Hear it from them

What clients say.

Working with Richie changed the way I see myself. I came in thinking I just needed to manage my anxiety. What I actually needed was to understand where it came from. He helped me do that.

Anonymous · Nashville, TN

I'd been to therapy before and never felt like it went anywhere. This was different. Richie asked the questions no one else had, and something actually shifted.

Anonymous · Individual Therapy

I didn't think I was someone who needed therapy. Turns out I just needed the right therapist. If you're on the fence, stop thinking about it.

About Richie

A therapist who has
done the work himself.

I'm not a blank slate behind a notepad. I know what it feels like to sit in that chair — and what it feels like to finally get out of it. That's what I bring into the room with you.
