About William
William Richert is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience practicing in Wyoming. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, addiction, and family of origin issues. He combines listening with practical coaching to help people get unstuck and build habits that work in everyday life.
He balances open-ended listening with concrete tools. Sessions often include skills drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to manage emotions and reduce distress. He also uses motivational techniques to help people follow through on goals and make steady progress.
William applies elements of dialectical behavior ideas alongside positive psychology practices. That means he will both help you tolerate difficult feelings and look for ways to increase positive experiences and meaning. He can explain how stress and emotions affect the brain and behavior to make skills easier to use in daily life.
The work emphasizes actions outside sessions as much as the conversations inside them. Expect homework-like practices, short experiments, and skills to try between meetings. These are meant to build resilience and change patterns that started in your family of origin or earlier relationships.
He frames therapy as collaborative and paced to what you can manage. The focus is on identifying strengths, improving relationships, and increasing ability to cope with setbacks. William keeps the sessions practical so people can apply what they learn to work, parenting, and other daily demands.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following your concerns. It helps when someone needs a reflective, accepting space to talk through patterns from the family they grew up in and current relationship struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with clear exercises. CBT offers tools for anxiety, depression, panic, and changing patterns that affect daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will collaborate with the client to decide which combination of listening, skills training, and goal-focused coaching fits best. That choice is based on your goals, current difficulties, and what you prefer to try in sessions.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work still supports concrete homework, brief skills coaching between meetings, and practical problem solving that fits into daily life. Benefits include easier scheduling around work or caregiving, options for shorter check-ins, and the ability to practice skills in the settings where they matter most.
