About Richelle

Richelle Rojas-Basuil is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with three years of direct therapy experience. She has a background that includes work with adolescents in school settings and experience in crisis intervention and supporting at-risk youth. Richelle focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, grief, and coping with life changes.

Her approach is straightforward and client-centered. She listens without judgment and helps people identify concrete steps they can try between sessions. Sessions often include practical strategies to reduce anxiety and to manage mood, alongside talking through difficult experiences related to trauma or loss.

Richelle also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Motivational interviewing appears in her work when people want help building motivation for change. Narrative therapy is used to look at the stories people tell about themselves and test if those stories still fit.

She brings experience from school-based and crisis-focused settings into individual and group therapy work. That background shapes an emphasis on safety planning, building coping skills, and clearer communication. People who contact Richelle can expect a practical, matter-of-fact style aimed at day-to-day improvements.

Sessions are conducted in English and Richelle does not currently work with international clients. If you plan to book, confirm the current session formats before scheduling so you know how she conducts appointments.

BHow sessions work

How Richelle uses therapy approaches in online sessions

Richelle commonly draws on client-centered work to create a straightforward space where people can talk through current problems and set practical goals. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person leads the pace and topics, which helps during periods of stress or life change.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thinking and behavior patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood. CBT provides hands-on tools such as simple exercises to test thoughts and short behavior experiments that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Richelle will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and help decide which methods to use. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to match what helps most.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten some check-ins, or reduce travel time. Richelle aims to help clients integrate therapy with everyday life and will discuss practical arrangements when you schedule.
