About Richard
Richard Reihing is an Ohio LPCC with 14 years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, addictions, grief, and questions about life purpose and midlife change. He also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and first responder issues.
Richard uses practical, person-focused methods in session. He listens for how past relationships and attachment patterns shape current problems. He helps people notice thinking patterns that keep them stuck and practices clearer ways to respond. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented rather than lecture-style.
Richard draws on approaches such as attachment-based therapy, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and emotionally focused methods. That mix is used to address issues like abandonment, shame, jealousy, communication problems, and obsessive or compulsive behaviors. He also brings experience from his time as a firefighter/paramedic, which informs his work with veterans and first responders.
In practical terms he helps people sort priorities after big life changes like divorce, job shifts, or health events. He works with common themes such as low self-esteem, guilt, and trouble reconnecting with others. The focus is on finding manageable steps forward rather than quick fixes.
To begin he asks people to describe the current problem and what they want differently. He uses that information to pick methods and small experiments to try between sessions. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Attachment-based therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape reactions today; it helps when past losses or abandonment affect trust and connection. Client-centered therapy centers on the person's own goals and perspectives, using open conversation to help people clarify what matters and choose next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical techniques to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and compulsive behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, checking in as treatment progresses and adjusting based on what helps most.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use phone or lower-bandwidth options when video is difficult. These practical benefits can make consistent work more possible while the therapist and client focus on concrete steps and skills that address the issues named above.
