Dr. Rozetia Richardson, LMFT

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Dr. Richardson commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how connection patterns shape feelings and behavior; this helps when relationships feel stuck or when people struggle with closeness. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them despite difficult thoughts or emotions. Together these approaches help with relationship strain, anxiety, grief, and mood concerns.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities, then suggest which methods to try first. Sessions can shift over time so the work stays practical and relevant to what the client needs in each moment.

Online formats are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different rhythms of life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for emotional work and exercises. Phone sessions can be simpler when less bandwidth is available or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or checking progress after trying new skills. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work even when travel or location would otherwise get in the way.
