Who we are
Our team is comprised of three doctoral-level clinical psychologists who have worked together on and off in a variety of healthcare settings for over a decade. We came together in 2024 with a shared goal of bringing evidence-based and holistic psychotherapy and related services to the community after years of working in hospital settings and seeing how challenging it was to access readily available and affordable services in the community.
While our initial practice was called It Takes A Village and set out to provide services for parents and children, we have broadened our services over the course of 2025 and have thus rebranded to better capture the wider array of services we provide in the heart of Richmond. We are lucky enough to be able to take in the mountain views on our way to and from our office each day, and thus the new name was born. We are excited to enter 2026 as Mountain View Psychology, providing the same services and supports as we always have, now under a more aptly named group and in a soon to be even bigger space (more to come on this in spring 2026 - don’t worry, we’re not moving far).
Each of us has differing areas of expertise and clinical interests, described in depth within the bios below. However, we all contract with both Bluecross Blueshield and Vermont Medicaid, and see self-pay individuals who hold other coverage. We also offer a sliding scale for self-pay individuals, though slots may be limited.
