About Richard

Dr. Richard Tscherne uses cognitive behavioral approaches to help people manage stress and anxiety. He combines practical thinking exercises with gentle mindfulness to address low self-esteem, depression, anger, grief, and life changes. He is a New York psychologist and brings three years of clinical experience to his work in New York.

In sessions he focuses on simple, concrete steps people can use between meetings. He helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try different behaviors to see what changes. Mindfulness practices and client-centered conversation are woven into the process to help people feel heard and to practice staying present.

Dr. Tscherne also works with concerns such as addictions, ADHD, career struggles, and social anxiety. He pays attention to how physical health, chronic illness, or disability can shape daily life and mood. Conversations include practical coping tools for pain, routines that support goals, and ways to rebuild confidence.

He keeps sessions straightforward and collaborative. Clients set goals, track small steps, and review what helped each week. The therapist’s style is steady and pragmatic, with space for personal values and meaning to guide change.

Therapy is offered in English and delivered remotely by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How CBT, Mindfulness, and Talk Work Online

Many clients begin with cognitive behavioral work to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT sessions focus on concrete exercises and homework that can be practiced between meetings to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address attention or impulse concerns.

Mindfulness practices are offered as simple, short exercises to help people notice the present moment without judgment. These exercises can reduce stress reactions and support coping with chronic pain or difficult emotions. Client-centered conversation prioritizes listening and follows the client's pace so the session feels collaborative and grounded in personal values.

Deciding which approach to emphasize is part of the work. The therapist will review goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then recommend a mix of CBT, mindfulness, and client-centered techniques. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to each person's needs.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text can be a shorter check-in or fit a busy schedule. These options make it easier to keep appointments, practice skills between sessions, and access support from home or work when needed.
