Richard

Mr Richard Chandler, MA, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

I specialize in Marriage Therapy & Couples Counseling, Men's Issues & Career Consulting. I also do Business Consulting & Executive Coaching.

About Me

I help individuals and couples navigate pivotal moments in their personal and professional lives. Perhaps you seek stronger relationship bonds, or need to address specific challenges as a man. We can also focus on career advancement, business consulting, or executive coaching. I offer a focused space to explore your unique path. Together, we develop practical strategies, fostering clear communication and confident decision-making for lasting solutions.

Approach

Facing turning points, I guide practical problem-solving rooted in curiosity and accountability. Sessions meet in St. Cloud or online, conducted in English, with a steady pace that balances reflection and action. We track patterns, practice mindful skills between meetings, and set short experiments to shift interactional habits around anger, codependency, divorce transitions and career decisions. This collaborative, results-focused way of working fits adults and couples ready to translate insight into more reliable communication and sustainable change.
