Meet RCC
I have been in private practice since 2018 and seeing clients since 2015 in graduate school. I have worked with a multitude of demographics and enjoy getting to know each person by hearing their story. I have interned at both inpatient and outpatient clinics and have experience in treating drug and alcohol addictions in addition to most mental health concerns.
I have earned two bachelor’s degrees at the University of Sioux Falls in Theology and Fine Art painting. After touring with my band for a number of years, I went on to graduate school at Emporia State University to receive a master’s degree in Clinical Counseling and second master’s degree in Art Therapy. I am a Trauma Specialist certified in TF-CBT and am also certified in Autism Spectrum Disorders.
I am honored to be invited into your life and am glad you are taking necessary steps to work through your concerns. I work best with teens, young adults, adults, and geriatric folks going through life transitions who simply need to process with someone outside of their normal family and social circles. Anyone can benefit from counseling. There is something unique about being able to share your personal thoughts and feelings in a safe space. You or your loved one will feel equally welcomed and challenged.
Why Choose Kyle at Richards C&C?
Finding a counselor to connect and resonate with is half of the battle when seeking therapy services. My personality is relaxed, professional, approachable.
Faith Based
I offer counseling and art therapy while specializing in Christian perspective and biblical theology.
My Approach
I would be considered a more “cognitive” therapist in the sense that we will discuss topics deeply and peel back layers. I process with my clients in a holistic, person-centered way.
Years Of Experience
I have been practicing as a clinical mental health therapist for 4+ years in the state of Iowa. I also served as a student mental health therapist in South Dakota, Kansas, and Missouri for an additional 3+ years during my time in graduate school. I have worked in addiction settings (both inpatient and outpatient), correctional facilities, trauma centers, grief camps, faith-based outpatient facilities, under federal government contract as a mental health consultant, and in outpatient private practice.
Dedicated Support
I will always seek to support you and advocate for you. I answer my phone, texts, and emails much faster than most mental health providers! You are my client, you are my priority.
Local Services
RCC is proud to offer the entire state of Iowa counseling services via telehealth as it makes counseling more convenient and accessible to rural communities.
