Hello-My name is Richard (Rick) Lally. I graduated with a master's degree in clinical psychology from Connecticut College and have been working in behavioral health for 25 years. I also have been a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina for the past 20 years. I am adept at and have utilized a variety of counseling modalities, including but not limited to solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, person-centered, and mindfulness. Secondary to the type of therapy I use is the importance of establishing and maintaining a strong and healthy therapeutic relationship with each individual I support. By doing so, I have been able to help individuals from diverse backgrounds with a wide array of issues; depression, grief/loss, stress, anger, relationship distress to name a few. Regardless of whether your need for seeking counseling is one of these matters or something else, please reach out to me and give me the chance to see if I can offer some relief. I welcome the opportunity to meet you.

Rick is really good at what he does, his passion for helping people is evident in how he talks with you. He cracks jokes and it really helps.

Rick has been so wonderful to talk to. He is warm, funny, empathetic and also just the right amount of no-nonsense. I was so pleasantly surprised by how well we connected despite our outward differences. He helped me talk through my grief and understand what I was going through while often making me laugh. I wish him nothing but the best - I'm off to live my life, but will definitely be back if I need a friend to lean on. :)
