01About Richard
Richard Ingram-Hegenbart brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy. He is credentialed as MT LCPC and has four years of professional experience in Montana. He focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and career concerns.
He aims to make the first step feel manageable for people who are nervous about starting therapy. He creates a calm space where people can talk without worrying about judgment. Sessions center on real problems and clear steps to feel better.
Background and approach
He listens for patterns linked to attachment, communication, and coping skills, then works with each person to try new ways of handling those patterns. Richard combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also draws on attachment-informed perspectives to understand how past relationships shape current reactions.
Mindfulness practices and existential questions can be included when they help a person feel more grounded or find meaning. Expect straightforward conversations about what is happening now and what practical moves could help. He aims to help people improve sleep, manage impulsivity, and reduce relationship or parenting stress through small, achievable steps.
He also supports people navigating trauma, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles. Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled to fit different routines. Richard works collaboratively to set goals and adjust the plan as progress is made.
He encourages people to try a few sessions and see what feels most useful.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online work
Richard uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where each person sets the pace and focus of sessions. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard and wants support in making sense of their feelings.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and tests small changes to see what helps. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, impulsivity, and many everyday problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will discuss your goals, preferences, and needs and recommend a mix of techniques. The plan is adjusted over time so it matches what actually helps you feel and function better.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you have a fuller conversation when you want face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be quicker and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text are helpful for shorter check-ins, coaching-style support, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel schedules.
