Richard Orona

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hello,

Let me introduce myself, my name is Richard Orona and I can help you obtain the changes you are looking to make. My years of experience have allowed me to develop a personal appreciation for focusing on what is important in life. For me, that is nurturing my family and passing on the appreciation that allows my four children to find out what is important in their lives, to work towards their goals, and above all to enjoy the journey!

I have worked in various counseling agencies and in private practice. I have been able to see success in my counseling practice with individuals, families and couples. (Please read the reviews of clients that I have worked with here on this site). I have always enjoyed the process of counseling and the opportunity to help people enhance their lives. I am committed to providing proven and research based counseling services for a wide range of concerns and problems. I have successfully helped people cope with depression, stress and anxiety, relationship issues and methods to improve self-esteem. My approach incorporates assessing the concern and locating practical strategies to resolve the issue. I am focused on helping the client adopt skills for self-development and maintaining success. I have earned a Master’s of Art in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Master’s of Science in Psychology with a specialty in Behavioral Medicine.

The approach that I use is a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Brief Solution Focused Therapy. It is important to A) focus on finding solutions to the concerns that are confronting the client and B) helping the person locate and change the thought processes guiding the problematic behavior. If the thought processes are altered then the new behavior is not far behind. I strive to help clients locate the change they are seeking. I believe counseling is an effective method to learn new behaviors, new thought processes, and new ways to be successful in personal and professional settings.

I look forward to working with you locate the solutions you are seeking.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people ask whether online therapy can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that fits their life best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it easier to attend appointments around work, family, and other commitments.

Each therapist offering online care is a licensed professional, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they seek a different fit. This combination of demonstrated effectiveness and adaptable delivery makes online therapy a practical option for many people seeking support.
