One provider. A more connected approach to care.

Mental health care is rarely one-size-fits-all.

At The Mentalizing Collaborative, Erica Richards brings psychotherapy and psychiatric care together, offering therapy, psychiatric evaluations, and medication management within one practice.

By integrating these services, Erica offers a more continuous, personalized approach to care—one grounded in curiosity, collaboration, and an understanding of the whole person.

Beyond clinical care, Erica extends her work into education, helping schools, families, and fellow professionals better understand mental health, learning differences, and the value of Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT).
