More about Bruce
- 3 years' experience
- Male
- Psychologist
I am a Clinical Psychologist licensed in Colorado with over 30 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, personality disorders, being present in the moment, addiction, and grieving losses and unfulfilled expectations I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, person centered and mindfulness I believe strongly in the power of laughter and humor in assisting someone to improve their mental and emotional health. I will tailor my therapeutic approach to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Love Dr. Riecks.
Definitely has helped me see things differently and given me practices to better help myself in to being more communicative with my partner in a healthy way. Thank you!
Dr.Riecks has helped me work through several issues that were affecting me personally, as well as issues in my marriage. He has been an incredible listener, and gives helpful insights. He has also taught me ways to be more fully present. I am grateful for the progress that has been made in feeling more like myself again.
Dr. Riecks has been of great help to me. I had a lot of anxiety to work through that I had been putting off for years. I finally decided it was time to get help. He was very knowledgeable and understanding of my concerns. He taught me many tools and methods to help cope with my anxiety. It is a day and night difference from when I started seeing Dr. Riecks a few months ago. I great man and therapist.
Dr. E Riecks is great. I was apprehensive about starting therapy and getting into my feelings. I have pleasantly surprised. The cognitive behavior approach Dr. E Riecks employs is fantastic. It offers information and skills to use immediately with result. I have only been in therapy with Dr. E Riecks for 3 weeks and already see drastic improvements in my life. He is understanding, compassionate, and helpful. Strongly recomend therapy with Dr. E Riecks!
Excellent therapist, he took great care to understand my issue and provided practical guidance and techniques that allowed me to make significant progress.

Dr is the best
By helping me to heal and grow, Dr. Riecks is changing my life in how I view, and understand myself, which in turn has changed the way I experience life. As I write this I have tears of Joy, THANK YOU DR. RIECKS!!!!!
Very professional and punctual!! Great listener and is perfect for anyone who needs help.
He seems to have a great wealth of knowledge regarding therapy, however I feel like even after 3 sessions we really haven't gotten anywhere deep with my problems. The second session he forgot he had met me the week before and spent about 10 minutes re-introducing himself. So needless to say, there was very little foundation to work on for our second session since he pretty much forgot everything from a week ago. Nice guy, smart, but I just don't feel any progress.
Thank you
Dr E Rieck is great
i am looking forward to talking,for some reason it did not schedule the day i had picked last week sorry. i booked for this week
Very professional,
