Dr. Regina Clark
Hello, and welcome. My name is Dr. Regina Clark, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families through life’s challenges. I believe that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change in their lives. My areas of focus include trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress management, self-esteem, and family dynamics. I am particularly passionate about helping individuals navigate the effects of trauma, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies that support long-term wellness. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and culturally responsive. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), mindfulness-based interventions, Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed strategies, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs, strengths, and goals because I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. In our work together, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you are encouraged to openly explore your experiences, challenges, and aspirations. My goal is to help you gain insight, develop practical tools, strengthen your relationships, and move toward the life you want to create. Seeking support is a courageous step, and I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing, growth, and lasting change. I look forward to working with you.
Jonathan Richard
Hello! My name is Jon Richard, LPC. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works in Austin, Texas. After graduating from the Masters of Arts in Counseling (MAC) program at St. Edward's University, I completed an internship at Capital Area Counseling (CAC) which is the most rewarding chapter of my adult life. At CAC, I discovered my therapeutic "voice" while counseling a diverse sample of the population (those who suffered from addiction, gender dysphoria, divorce, the harsh realities of youth and middle age). By "therapeutic voice" I mean that a person-centered approach was congruent with my easy-going personality. I felt more authentic with clients when we engaged in a loose, organic conversations (sometimes informed by cognitive behavioral therapy). Since that time, I have gravitated toward Solution Focused Brief Therapy (though I cannot market myself as an official SFBT therapist). I find SFBT to be particularly liberating because it leads with inspiring the client by asking them about their desired outcome. Once I learn what difference you would like to notice in yourself, my line of questions will focus on your previous experience with happiness/success. The more vividly you can describe your history with the desired outcome, the more possible it seems. The popular saying amongst SFBT experts like Elliott Connie, MA, LPC is "It's simple, but it's not easy". I cannot promise "easy", but I will say that the journey will be meaningful and invigorating.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Texas, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
