Thank you!
January 25, 2025Sharde S.Verified patient
While the provider I booked wasn’t the one I ended up seeing, this was all dealt with and approved by me in advance of my appointment. I was very pleased with the (virtual) visit. The attention and care I received was significantly higher than appointments I’ve had with psychiatrists in the past, who spent at most 10 minutes with me, wrote a prescription, and did not provide any level of care beyond the surface. This is what I thought I was to expect for medication management. However, I booked with an NP this time and there’s no going back for me. 40+ minutes later and I had a much better understanding of the meds I am taking, what meds I can possibly supplement with or switch to, other health considerations, etc. My provider was attentive, kind, comprehensive, and explained everything to me in detail.
January 21, 2025Marisa B.Verified patient
I couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. Lindon Richards is a fantastic listener, truly taking the time to understand my concerns without judgment. He helped me navigate some tough questions I had been struggling with, providing invaluable guidance and support. I left the session feeling heard and understood

Lindon was very attentive and thoughtful. He was able to understand my needs properly and address them in a manner that provided me confidence and assurance.

Lindon was very personable and easy to connect with. I was just looking for a psych who could continue sending us scripts for my medication after moving to a new state - when booking with Orenda they did call me to let me know the system doubled booked the person I originally scheduled with but they were able to adjust and keep the same time slot but with a different doctor - aka Lindon. He asked the important questions and actively listened to my answers, I felt comfortable talking with him the entire time.
November 1, 2024Jenn B.Verified patient
It was cool. They switched the original doctor with someone in my demographic, which ended up in my favor when it came to empathizing. Wait wasn't bad, I got to have a legit 45 minute conversation amidst my lunch hour errands. ????
September 30, 2024Ryan M.Verified patient
Insightful and enlightening.

To sum it up, my experience was refreshing. I am
39 years old and this was my very first therapy session and I could not have chosen a better therapist. Mr. Richards was a great listener and communicator, relatable, over all, no complaints. He makes me want to continue therapy!
February 20, 2024Tiffany H.Verified patient
Excellent care and good listener.
January 22, 2024Adam C.Verified patient
The was confusion as I chose a different doctor and was called 5:30 the night before and was told that doctor was not available so I was switched to Lindon but was called first thing in morning to have my time changed. That was a bit unnerving but Lindon was great.
December 5, 2023Kevin O.Verified patient
I've been very hesitant to explore mental health support after a not so great experience years ago; the session with Lindon Richards, although it was my our first meeting, went much better than I anticipated. I felt my anxiety acting up as I tried to respond authentically, but he held a very calm, accepting, and warm demeanor. It was very validating, and informative. When we discussed next steps, it didn't feel like an assignment but instead, felt like a partnership. Even though I just started with Richards, I highly recommend him especially to anyone cautious about reaching out for support or fearing judgement.

Great experience, caring and personable.
November 17, 2023Collin F.Verified patient
He was fantastic and very thorough. I usually always go with a NP or provider that is a woman, but this was a great experience. Would highly recommend, wonderful provider!
