About Eve

Eve Mary Richard is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings 19 years of experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship strains, parenting challenges, mood concerns, and a wide range of life transitions.

Background and approach

She works with clients on practical issues like sleep and eating struggles, career stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and chronic illness-related stress, as well as attachment and family-of-origin concerns. Her practice also addresses complex topics such as abandonment, adoption and foster care dynamics, domestic violence, and blended-family adjustment.

Her therapeutic stance centers on respect, authenticity, and a growth mindset. She blends person-centered care with trauma-informed and solution-focused elements, drawing on methods including Internal Family Systems, Attachment-Based Therapy, CBT, and DBT to tailor work to each client’s needs.

Eve emphasizes the quality of the therapeutic relationship and uses collaborative goal-setting to create treatment plans that reflect a client’s priorities and strengths. Communication in sessions can be in English, French, or Haitian Creole, and she accepts international clients while practicing from Florida.

Her approach aims to empower clients to build resilience, clearer self-understanding, and practical skills for navigating life’s challenges.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Internal Family Systems (IFS) invites clients to explore inner parts and their relationships, helping people understand conflicting feelings and self-protective patterns; it can be useful for trauma, shame, and complex emotional states. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and early bonds, aiming to improve how clients connect with others and regulate emotions in intimate or family contexts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured strategies to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, often helping with anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Determining the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to identify goals, try approaches that match their needs and preferences, and adjust the plan over time. That partnership helps tailor sessions so interventions feel relevant and workable for daily life.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit care into busy schedules or when in-person meetings are not feasible. These options allow clients to continue consistent work from different locations while maintaining the relational focus and practical skills-building that licensed professionals provide.
