Getting to know Richard Fontenot

I believe that you are the expert on your life story and have many hidden strengths that can be discovered to overcome obstacles and create positive outcomes. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and I am here to support you in that discovery process. With a Doctor of Clinical Psychology from Phillips Graduate University and 18 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist, I bring a deep understanding of the challenges people face. Additionally, my experience as a producer’s assistant to Academy Award and Emmy Award winners has given me insight into the dreams and ambitions involved in striving to reach the top, staying there, and balancing school, career, family, and relationship demands. We can run into relationship problems or addictions when we strive to live up to personal and family obligations and expectations while wanting our share of success. When one side of the scale becomes heavier, it causes an imbalance, and the scale will no longer be stable, with one side higher and the other lower. I provide psychotherapy and coaching solutions to individuals, couples, and families seeking caring support, change, or improvement in their lives. I help those wanting to establish stronger work, family, and team organizational goals and ease stressors related to life challenges such as retirement, immigration, depression, substance abuse, career changes, illnesses, family and marital issues, loss and grief, co-occurring disorders, and assist people in preparing for and finding purpose in retirement. I am here to help support you in your discovery process.
