Dear Patient,

We believe the right treatment can be life changing. Not only can it improve your symptoms - that’s the basics - but it can also set you on a course to a more fulfilling and meaningful life. We have learned from the experiences of our patients, and from our own journeys, just how much it matters.

Providing excellent holistic treatment is what drives us. What keeps us moving forward is watching a woman overcome her severe anxiety and be able to not only speak but take charge in executive meetings. It is helping a man with a history of trauma and depression develop the courage to leave his unfulfilling job and set out to pursue his creative dream. It is helping a woman with a history of relationship difficulties recognize the causes of this problem and find a more secure partner. This kind of progress requires time. It requires a close look at all the biological, psychological, cultural, and circumstantial aspects of a person’s life.

We couldn’t make this kind of impact in our community alone. So in 2017, we teamed up and founded Rivia Mind to help make reliable and high quality care more widely available.

We carefully hand-pick top clinicians who share our dedication to quality treatment. They are not only knowledgeable and highly trained, but also caring and attentive. Most importantly, the practitioners at Rivia Mind believe in our practicing philosophy of high quality holistic mental health treatment. They are here to be your partners in the journey to recovery. Take a look at our providers page to learn more about them. Each and every one of their accomplishments and skills as clinicians makes us proud to work with them.
