About Richard
Richard "Rich" Yeager is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 10 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. He accepts English-speaking and international clients.
Rich focuses on problems that show up in everyday life. He helps people who are worn down from people-pleasing, who struggle to set boundaries, or who find relationships repeating the same painful patterns. He also supports those carrying the effects of past trauma and those coping with intense emotions like anger or persistent low mood.
His style is direct and straightforward. Sessions aim to identify what keeps problems going and then practice concrete changes. He combines clinical approaches with attention to inner emotional experience and relationship patterns so work can address both immediate symptoms and deeper causes.
Rich often helps clients rebuild after difficult relationships, clarify communication, and strengthen personal boundaries. In sessions he talks through specific behaviors, patterns of thinking, and ways to try different responses in real life. He names behaviors and offers steps people can try between meetings.
People who choose him can expect practical focus alongside attention to feelings and relationships. He frames therapy as a place to stop performing social roles and practice how to be more authentic and intentional in relationships and daily life.
How therapeutic approaches and online sessions can work together
Rich uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside attention to emotional and relationship patterns. One commonly used approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, then practicing alternative responses to reduce anxiety and improve communication. This approach helps with social anxiety, relationship conflicts, and stress by giving concrete steps to try between sessions.Another strand of his work concentrates on processing the effects of past trauma and how it shows up in current relationships. That involves naming how past events influence trust, boundaries, and emotional reactions, then working slowly to change those patterns. This can help people who carry shame, guilt, or who repeat unhealthy relational dynamics.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide what methods fit best based on goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting as the work proceeds.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the challenge of arranging childcare or work breaks. Licensed professionals can use online work to keep momentum between in-person meetings and to practice skills in real-life contexts.
