About Richard

Dr. Richard Tscherne approaches therapy as a shared journey rather than a single appointment, guiding people through the curves, bumps, and cracks that life can present. He is a licensed psychologist in New York - license NY Psychologist 018844 - and brings a background as a certified rehabilitation counselor with over 20 years of experience in the field of disabilities. That combination informs a practice focused on meeting each person where they are and tailoring methods to the obstacles they face.

Born with cerebral palsy, Dr. Tscherne draws on his lived experience to understand how physical challenges shape mindset, coping, and goals. He blends techniques such as meditation, breathing exercises, mindfulness, and awareness training with client-centered exploration to help people strengthen self-awareness, self-acceptance, and resilience. His work emphasizes discovering and integrating the many parts of a person to create meaningful shifts in how they relate to themselves and others.

Dr. Tscherne commonly supports individuals coping with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, career challenges, grief, addictions, ADHD, chronic illness and pain, and issues around body image and social connection. He also has training in psychedelic integration for clients exploring that area. While he has a specialty in working with people who identify as disabled, his approach and tools are applicable to a wide range of clients seeking growth and greater self-understanding.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Support

Dr. Richard Tscherne integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness approaches into online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client leads exploration and the therapist supports self-discovery and growth - this approach helps with self-esteem, identity, and personal meaning. CBT offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life transitions. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness through exercises like breath work and gentle attention practices, which can ease chronic stress, support emotion regulation, and assist with chronic pain and illness management.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Dr. Tscherne works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts techniques over time so the work remains practical and relevant to the client’s life.
