About Richard

Richard Reihing is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 14 years of experience. He focuses on helping people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, and relationship struggles. He also supports those dealing with midlife questions and shifts in purpose. Richard aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental setting where people can talk honestly about hard moments.

He uses practical, evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral work, attachment-based ideas, dialectical skills, and emotionally focused approaches. In sessions he helps people notice unhelpful patterns, try new ways of relating, and build coping skills that fit daily life. Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Richard brings a background as a firefighter/paramedic alongside his Master’s degree and counseling credential. That experience informs his understanding of first responder stress and trauma without defining every case. He emphasizes listening first, then working step by step toward clearer direction and relief.

Clients can expect straightforward language and concrete tools alongside space to process grief, shame, or overwhelm. He often supports work on communication problems, attachment concerns, issues around abandonment, and challenges like obsessive behaviors and compulsions. The goal is steady progress toward the life a person wants.

He offers services in English and practices in Ohio. To start, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current connections and emotional responses. It helps people understand attachment patterns, improve communication, and feel more secure in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and pace, using empathic listening to guide change and build self-directed solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical exercises to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and compulsive routines.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Richard collaborates with each person to identify which methods make the most sense for their goals and life. He will discuss options and adapt techniques as therapy progresses so the plan fits the person’s needs and preferences.

Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, make it easier to attend during a lunch break, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can support skill practice, emotional processing, and communication work without requiring travel. Speak with the therapist about scheduling and format options to find what works best for your routine.
