Andrew Riehl, LCMHC

Andrew Riehl is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina. He has 14 years of experience helping people work through stressful times and rebuilding a sense of direction. He focuses on practical conversation and steady support as people take the first steps toward change.

He uses a straightforward, respectful style in sessions. He listens first, then adapts the pace and plan to what each person needs. Conversations are shaped around real problems like anxiety, depression, career strain, grief, parenting stress, and relationship concerns.

Andrew works with common life challenges including anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. He also addresses issues such as body image, fatherhood questions, family of origin problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. His aim is to help people find clearer choices and small ways to feel better day to day.

In therapy he draws on client-centered and mindfulness approaches alongside motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-aware while still leaving room for deeper reflection when needed. He helps people set manageable steps and track progress over time.

Andrew emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in the work. He encourages people to be honest about what is and isn’t working, and to shape the work together. If someone wants to begin, he supports them through the initial steps toward a more balanced life.

How Andrew’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-centered therapy puts your concerns at the center of the conversation. The therapist listens closely and follows your lead, helping you feel heard and shaping goals around what matters most. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices and breathing techniques to reduce reactivity and manage stress in everyday life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, preferences, and pace. That teamwork makes it easier to try small changes and see what helps.

The original profile does not specify particular session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use practices learned in sessions in real-life routines, so progress can connect directly to daily life.
