About me

“My partner doesn’t understand.” “I don’t trust them…” These were two common statements from couples while I was in private practice for 11 years in Texas. I specialized in working with couples even offering premarital counseling to help start the relationship in the right direction. I networked with local churches to help pastors prepare their congregation not only for marriage, but through difficulties in the marriage (communication, intimacy, time-management, parenting, dual-careers, finances, cheating, differences in religion, cell phone dependence, excessive gaming, and a spouse that won’t do what I tell them to do).
Now, I am available online to help you change your life. My "prized" evening spots are limited to 16 (there's only one of me), but I do work 11am - 9:15pm during the week.
My diverse training allows us, together, to ascertain problems, develop goals, and set a realistic timeline for improvement. Each treatment plan is different for each client. My training as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Texas has allowed a deeper understanding of how you and your partner interacts with those at home, at work, or at school. My "down-to-earth" conversations help to engage the other partner, while my holistic approach can even incorporate your religious values.
Let's talk about how we can change your life.

Richard has helped us get back to our normal selves. Our disagreements are handled much better thanks to the tips and advice we received. Richard does not pick sides but helps us see each other's perspectives.

Rick has been really awesome and has listened to me and given me great tools in order to help my marriage. When he listens to me I feel like I’m not crazy and validates my feelings. With his help I really feel like my marriage will thrive and will bring us even closer.

Rick was an amazing counselor! He was professional, caring, and gave great advice for my husband and I. We both feel comfortable with the tools he has provided us to move forward in a positive direction in our marriage. We are very appreciative of everything he has done for us, and we will use him in the future if any problems arise. We are definitely happier because of Rick's guidance.

Mr. Zapf has and is continuing to help me through very difficult times. He has been extremely understanding and for once I am starting to feel some hope again. I’ve seen many counselors and therapist and have finally found one that fits right and with my schedule.

Work with me!
