My name is Dr. Richard Ostrom. I am in private practice in Kennewick, Washington. My wife, Joyce, is the office manager and responsible for all scheduling and billing. Our motto is, "always professional yet down-to-earth." Therefore, it is very important to both of us that each person knows that they are viewed as more than a patient. The main clinical approaches that I apply are: cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and mindfulness meditation. For the past six years I have been focused on clients experiencing chronic pain due to an on-the-job injury (Worker's Compensation). Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been a major focus since 1994 when I was diagnosed with ADHD. These areas compose about 85% of my caseload. Various types of evaluations are also available. After contacting our office to set an appointment, I will contact you for a free 15 to 20 minute consultation to ensure that we can work together well. Telepsychology is available if preferred. However, the initial evaluation will need to be done person to person.
