First session

A discussion about how I can help best serve their necessities in regards to their own mental health.

Strengths

Compassionate care and having worked with various populations with mental disorders over the past 5 years in the inpatient mental health hospital.

Ideal clients

I work with adults who may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, mood changes, ADHD, insomnia, OCD, or everyday life stressors. My goal is to provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you feel heard and comfortable discussing what you are experiencing. Whether you are looking for medication management, practical coping strategies, or additional emotional support, we will work together to create a personalized treatment plan focused on improving your daily functioning, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.

Treatment methods

Faith-based therapy

I integrate faith-based principles into treatment for clients who want their Christian faith to be part of their mental health care. Together, we can explore how Biblical values, prayer, purpose, and personal beliefs can support emotional well-being, resilience, and healthier coping. I combine this with evidence-based psychiatric care and medication management, taking time to understand what’s working, what isn’t, and how treatment is affecting your everyday life. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where we can find the right balance of medication, practical coping strategies, and faith-based support while honoring your individual values and goals.

I at first was skeptical but after speaking to Mr. Teves I felt a weight lift off my shoulders. I'm more happier I'm getting back on my medication which I needed. I'm happy I found this app. Im hopeful and awaiting my next appointment.

I’ve met with Richard about 4-5 times now. He is very intentional and present when we meet, and he is extremely easy to talk to. His support and his recommendations have really helped me focus on my mental health and make positive strides. He creates a safe space to be authentic and vulnerable and I truly appreciate his approach.
