Richie Leatherwood

Richie brings warmth, empathy, and a genuine passion for helping others to every counseling session. His personal journey into therapy began as a transformative experience—a space where he first felt the permission to open up and discover his authentic self. This experience ignited a deep desire to walk alongside others on their paths to healing and self-discovery.

With over two years of service in a ministry school, including an additional internship, Richie has cultivated a compassionate approach to counseling that resonates with individuals across all stages of life. Whether working with teenagers, young adults, or those in their later years, Richie’s ability to connect and create a safe, reflective space sets him apart.

Richie is a philosophical thinker and a lifelong learner who approaches every session with curiosity and a commitment to understanding. He employs a variety of techniques to identify and address the root causes of challenges, using tailored interventions to help restructure thought patterns and foster meaningful change.

Clients working with Richie often describe feeling a sense of warmth, openness, and deep reflection in his presence. He believes that every person has the capacity to grow and heal, and he considers it a privilege to support his clients on their journeys toward greater self-awareness and fulfillment.

Richie loves sports and spending time with loved ones. He leans a lot on the teachings of Jordan Peterson, Carl Jung, and Jesus from the Bible. If you're seeking a counselor who will meet you where you are with empathy and insight, Richie is the right fit for you!
