Richard Strand

“He's a kind person, good listener, well informed, and takes me seriously, which I greatly appreciate.”

“I feel comfortable with Richard he is very knowledgeable in what he does. I would definitely recommend him.”

“Richard has a wise presence and made me feel comfortable during some of my very first therapy experiences. I felt like I was talking to a family friend.”

“Richard made me feel seen, when I couldn’t see who I was myself. He helped me out of a terrible time; an extremely low time. He allowed my thoughts to echo out loud, and helped me to realize when those thoughts were destructive to myself. I couldn’t have gotten out of the depressive hole I found myself in without his guidance.”

“Richard is experienced and knowledgeable. He is very well versed in areas of addiction and his implementation of EMDR has helped me immensely. I am a healthcare professional and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a compassionate therapist who makes me feel like I am not being judged. He makes me feel like I can be honest and open. Most importantly, he has helped me with my mental health struggles.”

“Richard Strand is an honest man, a man whose words I strongly listen to. I’ve also needed a man’s advice, I’ve only ever felt comfortable with women, I’ve always seemed acceptance from women, through comfort and acceptance from men I saw as father figures/ofher. I made peace with acceptance, with his help, it’s an everyday thought process. Of course it’s more than men-women advice/acceptance, it’s his words and psychology that keep me going, I’m sure he can help much more people going through anything in life. Richard Strand is a good honest man I see that.”

“Richard is very kind and patient. I am still pretty early in my journey with him, but I am confident in continuing..”

“This has been an extremely positive experience”

“Richard is great ,down to earth , very easy to talk to. <br /> I highly recommend him for any type of therapy.”

“Richard's assertive approach allows me a safe space to work on my innerself without forcing myself into it. He respects my pace and I believe he can really help me through my inner child work”

“Richard quite frankly has saved my life, opened my eyes, cleaned me up and helped me build myself into a person again. I have no idea if I’d even be alive today without him.”

“Very helpful”

“I trust Richard with understanding what I'm going through. I need to work on myself”

“Richard has quite frankly helped me change my life. He has saved my life. Richard always takes the time to ask the right questions. He always takes the time to really listen to what you’re saying, and not saying.”

“Richard is very experienced. He has a multitude of tools in his Toolbox and our sessions are very structured with our therapy aims always in mind. We do have a laugh too though. I cannot say exactly what it was, but my thinking has changed. I am more confident, more compassionate (with myself) and much happier. I am so grateful I have found Richard through betterhelp and can recommend him 100%.”
