“Patients often already have a team of medical providers focused on their physical condition. My role is in helping with the emotional adjustment and recovery following a medical diagnosis, injury, or traumatic incident.

I am committed to a collaborative, whole-person rehabilitation process that helps patients identify their values and move forward toward their goals.”

—Dr. Richardson
