About Richard
Richard Roe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with 26 years of experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and related struggles. He speaks English and accepts international clients.
He uses several practical therapies to guide sessions, including cognitive behavioral methods and emotion-focused skills. Sessions tend to focus on what is happening now, learning skills to manage strong feelings, and making choices that match what matters to the client. He describes his work as respectful and sensitive, and he adapts conversations to the person in front of him.
Clients can expect direct, plain talk about patterns that keep problems active. He helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, test assumptions, and practice alternative behaviors. For anger concerns this often means learning ways to slow escalation, handle triggers, and repair relationships after conflicts.
Richard also works with attachment and relationship themes that show up in many adult struggles. He draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship experiences shape current reactions and closeness. This can help when anger, resentment, or fear get in the way of getting along with others.
Over decades of practice he has helped people cope with life changes, career problems, chronic illness, and burnout. He includes approaches from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered methods when they fit the goals.

How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even with difficult thoughts and feelings. It helps people who want to reduce struggle with emotions like anger by learning to notice thoughts and choose behavior that matches their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to test unhelpful beliefs and change patterns that keep problems going. This is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger triggers. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and closeness. It helps people understand why they react strongly in relationships and learn different ways to connect and repair after conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Richard will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences. He combines techniques as needed and adjusts the plan based on what helps the client make steady progress.
