About Richard
Richard Alongi is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California who focuses on improving self esteem, relationships, and coping skills. He speaks plainly and treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. He encourages anyone feeling stuck to take the first step toward getting help and tailors sessions to each person's needs.
With 36 years of experience, he has worked with a wide range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, stress, anxiety, grief, anger, and depression. He also addresses career concerns, coaching, compassion fatigue, and challenges linked to ADHD. His practice includes attention to abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, and relationship patterns that leave people feeling empty or disconnected.
Richard uses approaches drawn from attachment-based work, client-centered methods, emotionally-focused therapy, Imago relationship ideas, and Jungian perspectives. In sessions he listens first, then helps people notice patterns in feelings and behavior. He aims to build clearer self-awareness and stronger emotional connection with others.
Sessions are shaped around whatever the individual needs most - skill-building, processing painful memories, or improving intimacy and communication. He emphasizes practical steps people can try between meetings and checks progress together. The goal is to help people gain more confidence, steadier mood, and better ways to handle hard moments.
People who want a calm, experienced therapist who personalizes care may find his approach helpful. Prospective clients should use the site sign-up flow to begin the matching process and schedule a time to meet.
