About

Jonathan Richard is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Austin, Texas. He completed a Master of Arts in Counseling at St. Edward’s University and then served an internship at Capital Area Counseling (CAC), an experience he describes as the most rewarding chapter of his professional life.

During his time at CAC he worked with a diverse range of people, including those navigating addiction, gender dysphoria, divorce, and the difficult transitions of youth and middle age. That work helped him discover a therapeutic style that fits his easy-going manner - a person-centered approach built around relaxed, organic conversations and sometimes shaped by techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy.

Over time he has gravitated toward Solution Focused Brief Therapy. He finds this approach liberating because it begins by exploring the outcomes a client wants to see, then focuses questions on past moments of success or happiness so those experiences feel more possible again. He notes the common SFBT refrain from experts like Elliott Connie - “It’s simple, but it’s not easy” - and says he cannot promise the process will be easy, but that the work can be meaningful and invigorating.

He holds the state’s Licensed Professional Counselor credential and brings three years of clinical experience to his work with individuals and couples on issues such as stress, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, LGBT concerns, relationship and family conflicts, grief, intimacy, parenting challenges, and career difficulties.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether virtual counseling can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care for most situations.

One major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the format that works best for them, whether that means video meetings, phone sessions, live chat, or ongoing in-app messaging. This range of options often makes it simpler to incorporate therapy into a busy life.

All participating clinicians are licensed professionals, and clients may switch therapists if they want a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible and practical way to address everyday mental health concerns with a qualified therapist.
