Rikki Bullard, LPC, LCMHC

Rikki Bullard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, and codependency. Sessions focus on practical skills and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Rikki uses a client-centered base to shape sessions around what each person needs in the moment. She asks reflective questions and adjusts her approach as people change. The work often includes learning concrete tools to manage mood, stress, and everyday triggers.

She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new habits. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas also inform work around closeness, trust, and communication in relationships. These approaches are presented in plain, actionable terms so people can try them between sessions.

Rikki has spent many years in individual counseling settings where parenting, family dynamics, and behavioral concerns were common topics. That background informs how she helps clients set boundaries, address people-pleasing, and cope with another person’s mood or addiction without losing themselves.

Practically, sessions aim to build skills for daily life. Rikki talks through realistic steps for coping with change, dealing with grief, or managing anger so progress feels useful and observable. People who prefer straightforward, interactive therapy tend to find this style a clear fit.
