Richard Broach is a Wisconsin-based therapist with 25 years of experience working as a Licensed Professional Counselor and as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and challenges related to LGBTQ identity and life transitions.

His work is grounded in a holistic view of mental health. He likens problems to the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle – each issue is one part of a larger picture. By examining how present circumstances, upbringing, work, relationships, past and current stresses, and any traumatic experiences fit together, he helps clients see the connections among those pieces and identify practical solutions.

Richard also encourages a SANE lifestyle as part of treatment – emphasizing the importance of sleep, meaningful activities, good nutrition, and regular exercise, based on research that links these elements to physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. He models these habits in his own life and invites clients to develop routines that support resilience and recovery.

He believes the path to wholeness resides within each person, and that sincere, empathetic conversations can help unlock that inner capacity for healing. As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin, he holds state credentialing to provide psychotherapy, and his training as a psychiatric nurse practitioner complements this approach by informing clinical assessment and care from a nursing perspective.
