About Ricardo
Ricardo Romero-Andrade is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Nevada with five years of professional experience. He works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, mood disorders including bipolar, depression, and addictions. He also supports people facing relationship and family concerns, intimacy difficulties, sleep problems, parenting strain, and codependency-related patterns.
Ricardo frames clients as the experts in their own stories. He looks for strengths that can be used to meet current challenges. In sessions he listens for what is getting in the way of the client's day-to-day functioning and chooses practical ways to change those patterns.
His approach focuses on concrete steps rather than abstract theory. He helps people name patterns, practice new ways of responding, and test small changes between sessions. That might mean working on clearer communication, setting firmer boundaries, or adjusting routines that affect sleep and mood.
Ricardo has particular experience addressing trauma and abuse, family of origin issues, and relationship conflicts that leave someone putting others first. He also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, and life changes like separation or loss.
Sessions are conducted in English and delivered from Nevada. He asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment so they can begin outlining goals and next steps.
How sessions work
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Ricardo uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common technique helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new, balanced ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Another often-used method focuses on behavior change by setting small, achievable tasks between sessions to improve routines like sleep, self-care, and managing mood swings.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. He discusses different techniques with each person and adjusts based on goals, progress, and what feels manageable. Together they pick methods that fit the client's needs and preferences rather than starting with a fixed plan.
The practical upside of online work is being able to fit sessions into a busy life. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule meetings around work, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when a full session isn't needed. Therapists and licensed professionals will work with clients to arrange a pattern of meetings that supports steady progress without disrupting daily responsibilities.
