About Richard
Richard Titus is a Florida licensed mental health counselor who uses practical, goal-oriented methods to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and parenting challenges. He brings 35 years of experience to sessions and emphasizes a warm, interactive, and non-judgmental approach. He aims to treat people with respect and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels.
He blends cognitive behavioral techniques with motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas to shape conversations and plans that fit each person.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear steps, skill practice, and short-term goals when appropriate. He adapts the pace and tools to match what each person needs. Richard draws on a long history of work with issues such as relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, eating difficulties, anger, career changes, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life transitions.
That background informs how he recognizes patterns and suggests practical changes. In sessions he listens carefully, asks questions to clarify what matters most, and helps identify small, manageable actions. He encourages learning new skills and testing them between meetings.
Progress is measured in concrete changes rather than labels. People who start work with him can expect focused conversations, collaborative planning, and tools to use outside sessions. He supports anyone seeking clearer direction or relief from overwhelming feelings, with an emphasis on practical steps and steady progress.
Using practical therapy approaches online
Richard uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and habits, then suggests concrete exercises to test new behaviors and reduce distress. He also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons and motivation for change and to resolve mixed feelings about making adjustments.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. He will listen to your goals and try different techniques to see what fits. Together you set priorities and adjust the plan as progress is made or new needs appear.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to use tools between meetings. They also allow continued work when life or location would make in-person visits difficult. The online setting still supports structured conversations, practice of skills, and step-by-step plans to track change.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
