About Richard
Richard McCune is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, bipolar disorder, and depression. He presents himself as steady and respectful and emphasizes practical steps people can use right away. Sessions focus on small, manageable changes that add up over time.
Richard blends techniques that involve the body and the mind. He uses relaxing techniques and guided mindfulness to reduce immediate tension.
Background and approach
He also draws on person-centered therapy to follow the client’s pace and cognitive behavior ideas to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. In the therapy room he pays attention to how daily routines, physical symptoms, and beliefs interact. That helps when chronic pain, illness, or sleep struggles are part of the problem.
He also addresses life events like divorce, loss, disaster-related stress, or work-related strain in straightforward terms. Richard has eight years of clinical experience and holds the LPC credential. He works with adult concerns such as midlife transitions, men's issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, and coping after infidelity.
His practice also covers aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related distress, and co-morbidity when health conditions overlap with mood or anxiety problems. Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Richard frames therapy as a collaborative process focused on steady progress and practical tools.
Approaches and online care that fit your life
Richard uses evidence-based techniques in ways people can understand and use day to day. Cognitive behavior therapy focuses on how thoughts shape feelings and behavior; it helps with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood swings by teaching practical skill-building and behavior change. Person-centered therapy centers the conversation on the client’s experience and pace, offering empathic listening and support to help people clarify values and choices. Relaxation and mindfulness practices teach simple breathing and awareness strategies to lower immediate stress and improve sleep.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try strategies, and adjust methods based on the client’s goals, feedback, and what works in real life. Expect small experiments and regular check-ins to find the best fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face work when interaction and visual cues matter, while phone calls need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, coping reminders, or when typing is easier than talking. These options make it simpler to schedule care around daily routines and to keep steady progress without extra travel.
