Richard Amparan is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing relationship strain, trauma, sleep problems, anger, and depression. He writes and plans clear goals with each person and aims to make therapy practical and manageable. Richard offers flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends to fit busy lives.
He draws on more than a decade of experience in mental health and adjusts his methods to each person’s needs. That means picking techniques and pacing that match the problem and the goals.
Background and approach
Sessions can focus on short-term symptom relief or on longer-term changes, and follow-up care is available after any focused work. Many clients come for help with post-traumatic stress, anxiety, insomnia, nightmares, or anger. He also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication struggles, work problems, guilt, and isolation.
In conversation he lays out clear next steps and an expected timeline when appropriate. Richard uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and combines approaches when that suits the person’s goals. He tracks progress against specific objectives so people can see whether things are improving.
The pace and mix of methods are adjusted as therapy moves forward. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People start by answering a short questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on his availability.

04Online support
How evidence-based therapy works online
Richard often uses cognitive behavioral approaches that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps with depression, anxiety, anger, and sleep problems by teaching practical skills to test thoughts and build healthier routines.He also uses mindfulness-based strategies to reduce stress and to manage intrusive thoughts or hyperarousal. Mindfulness exercises can help with insomnia, anxiety, and staying grounded after traumatic memories.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist reviews symptoms, goals, and personal preferences, then suggests a plan and adjusts it as progress is tracked. Clients and therapist agree on short- and long-term goals and review outcomes together.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when needed, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing reflections between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into evenings or weekends and to keep momentum between meetings.
