About Ricardo

Ricardo Romero-Andrade is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, anger, bipolar and depression. He also supports those facing addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and intimacy-related issues. Ricardo emphasizes practical steps people can use day to day to feel steadier and more able to cope.

He frames the client as the expert in their own life and points out strengths people already have. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, manageable actions. Ricardo aims to make therapy straightforward and useful rather than filling sessions with jargon.

With five years of experience as an LCSW in Nevada, Ricardo has worked with a broad range of concerns from sleep problems and parenting strains to career stress and life transitions. He also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment, blended family dynamics, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and codependency.

Many clients come for help after a major loss, a breakup, or a disruptive life event. Ricardo helps people sort their feelings, set priorities, and practice skills that reduce overwhelm. He focuses on what a person can do between sessions to feel more in control.

Ricardo encourages people to reach out when they are ready. He asks prospective clients to use the continue button on this profile, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule based on the therapist's availability.

Approaches to practical change and emotional balance

Ricardo draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skill building and behavior change. One common approach emphasizes identifying patterns that keep problems going, then practicing new ways of responding to stress and mood shifts. This helps with anxiety, depression, bipolar symptom management, and daily coping skills.

Another approach centers on exploring how relationships and past experiences shape current reactions. By looking at attachment and family of origin issues, people can learn different ways of communicating and set clearer boundaries. This work often helps with intimacy concerns, abandonment feelings, and blended family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Ricardo will work together with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring to sessions. He checks in and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
