About Richard
Richard Humble is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 28 years of experience helping people through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. He speaks English and practices in Arizona. He emphasizes straightforward support and practical tools for everyday problems.
He focuses on improving communication and easing social anxiety. He also helps people manage the emotional fallout of divorce and separation and work toward forgiveness when they are ready.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to identify small steps that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Richard uses a calm, respectful style. He listens first, then helps clients try approaches that fit their life and values.
He can include faith-based perspectives when that matters to the person seeking support. Clients can expect clear goals each week and simple homework between sessions when it helps. The work often centers on changing unhelpful patterns and building skills people can use right away.
Over nearly three decades he has helped people develop coping strategies and clearer ways to talk about hard topics. He frames change as steady work, not quick fixes, and supports people as they make gradual progress toward their goals.

How evidence-based techniques work online
Richard draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and practical change. One common approach centers on teaching coping and problem-solving skills to reduce anxiety and depression, helping people break tasks into manageable steps and practice them between sessions. Another approach emphasizes improving communication patterns so conversations feel less charged and more productive, useful for relationship strain and parenting challenges.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, then try methods that fit your situation and values. You and the therapist will check in regularly and adjust the approach as needed to find what works best for you.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let you use visual cues and run through role-play or guided exercises. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day or to follow up on tools learned in sessions. These options offer flexibility so people can work on goals around work, school, and parenting demands.
