About Richard
Richard Ingram-Hegenbart is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana. He brings four years of experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, career concerns, and depression. He aims to make the first step easier for people who feel nervous about starting therapy.
In sessions he focuses on listening first. He creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through feelings and worries. That helps people sort what matters most and decide what to try next.
Background and approach
He uses practical tools alongside deeper reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Attachment-based ideas explore how early relationships affect present-day closeness and trust.
Mindfulness exercises are offered to reduce overwhelm and improve sleep and focus. Client-centered work keeps the conversation grounded in each person’s goals and values. Together these approaches are used to address parenting stress, relationship tension, career changes, and coping with life transitions.
Sessions can also help with trauma, intimacy-related concerns, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related struggles, and problems like communication or control issues. He also supports people dealing with fatherhood issues, caregiver stress, grief, guilt, and forgiveness. Richard invites a straightforward, conversational style and focuses on small, doable steps.
He works with each person to build clearer thinking and better daily routines that fit their life.

How Richard’s Methods Work Online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current closeness and trust. Online sessions use conversation and reflective questions to notice patterns and practice new ways of relating that often affect parenting and partnership concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes. In an online setting this can include homework, thought records, and short exercises you can do between sessions to improve sleep, mood, or focus.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. He will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs and then recommend ways of working together. That collaborative step helps tailor sessions to what feels most useful for each person.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between appointments or use shorter, focused exchanges during the day.
These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel routines while still using attachment-based reflection, CBT skills, and mindfulness practices.
