About

Hello, I'm Dr. Fredric Richmond, a licensed psychologist in PA.

‍

Through my sensitive focus on what is important to you, my goal is to listen clearly to the nature of your discomfort and to seek lasting solutions for you. Neurodivergent individuals frequently feel set apart, alone and misunderstood. My role is to listen carefully, understand your experiences, and help identify patterns that may provide valuable answers. Whether the outcome is a diagnosis, a better understanding of your strengths, or simply greater self-awareness, my hope is that we develop solutions to the everyday difficulties, problems or struggles that have caused you pain.

‍

You may have been asking yourself questions for years. Maybe you've wondered why certain situations feel overwhelming, why you think differently than those around you, or why strategies that work for others don't seem to work for you. If you're considering an assessment to pinpoint the nature of these problems, I would like to be the person who can lead you through the process.

Education & Licensure
PhD in Counseling Education from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor; Masters degree in Counseling Psychology from Temple University Philadelphia PA; Executive Masters of Business Administration from St. Joseph's University Philadelphia PA; Bachelors degree in Liberal Arts with a Majoring in Psychology from Temple University Philadelphia PA
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

Understanding how your brain works is a powerful step toward embracing your strengths and finding strategies that truly fit who you are.

‍

Many people spend years wondering why certain things feel so difficult, why they experience the world differently, or why they have never felt fully understood. I am deeply passionate about helping you find the answers that bring clarity, self-understanding, and self-compassion.

‍

My goal is to provide a thoughtful, affirming assessment experience where you feel recognized, respected, and valued. Whether our evaluation leads to a specific diagnosis, clear accommodations, or simply a deeper insight into your inner world, my hope is that you leave the process with greater confidence and a renewed appreciation for the unique person you are.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

My approach is rooted in the belief that every individual possesses unique strengths, talents, and ways of experiencing the world. Rather than focusing primarily on challenges or deficits, I strive to recognize and build upon each person's existing abilities and resources. Through a compassionate, affirming assessment process, I help clients gain a deeper understanding of themselves, highlighting not only areas of difficulty but also the qualities that contribute to their resilience, success, and growth.

‍

My goal is for every client to feel understood, valued, and empowered. I am committed to providing an experience that fosters self-understanding, confidence, and practical insight, helping individuals leverage their strengths as they move toward reaching their full potential.
