About Rikki
Rikki Bullard is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, based in North Carolina. She brings 16 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on helping people cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, and the pressures of everyday life. Rikki uses an approach that centers on the person in front of her.
She listens closely and tailors sessions to each person's immediate needs. That can mean practical skills for managing mood or hands-on strategies for handling relationship and parenting stresses.
Background and approach
Her work draws on several therapy styles, including cognitive behavioral ideas for changing unhelpful thoughts and existential perspectives that look at meaning and choice. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused techniques are used when relationship patterns and connection issues come up. Rikki often helps people facing grief, addiction, career shifts, chronic health challenges, or the strain of caregiving.
She also addresses concerns related to adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, and adjustment after separation or loss. Sessions are offered in English and run online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. New clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment according to her availability.
Rikki aims for straightforward conversations and practical steps. She works with each person to find what helps them feel steadier and more able to move forward.

Online support
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Rikki blends existential ideas with attachment-based and client-centered approaches to guide online sessions. Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and how they want to live; it can be useful for those facing life transitions, grief, or questions about purpose. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and patterns of connection, which helps when anxiety, intimacy issues, or family dynamics cause ongoing strain. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration so each session follows the person's priorities and pace.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rikki will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then shape the plan together. That means techniques and homework are agreed on collaboratively and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to check in between appointments or for brief, focused exchanges. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and life demands.
