Getting to know Richard Karges

I welcome individuals and families dealing with a range of mental health and life adjustment issues into my practice. My approach utilizes a "whole person" mind-body-spirit orientation that employs unique strength-based methods and solution-focused strategies. I seek to help my clients recognize and discover effective solutions to the problems or barriers that may stand in the way of reaching their goals, with a treatment orientation geared to what works best for each individual. I typically draw on clinical methodologies such as: • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) • Eclectic • Humanistic • Person-Centered • Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) • Reality Therapy • Solution Focused Brief Treatment (SFBT) • Strength-Based and Mindfulness-oriented therapies. I have worked with mental health conditions ranging from mild to severe in both community and hospital-based settings, as well as in my private practice. I have written and published numerous articles and papers relevant to behavioral healthcare, personal and career growth, and leadership strategies, which I frequently present at professional conferences. As a senior clinician and executive, I have had a diverse career, serving in CEO and managerial leadership positions in several community and residential organizations in both Ohio and Maine. In 2017, I founded my own company, Leadership Management Associates, LLC, specializing in leadership coaching, counseling, consultation, and crisis management services. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Ohio State University. I was recognized as Professional of the Year in 2007 by NAMI-Maine and received a Professional Achievement Award from Bridges (Ohio): Consumer Mental Health and Empowerment. My recreational interests include hiking, biking, photography, yoga, horseback riding, writing, and reading.
