Dr. Richard Vandiver, PhD

Psychologist
MA
My pathway to psychology has been a bit different than that of most of my colleagues. After high school, I enlisted in the US Air Force, and my experiences since then have given me a unique perspective on the world and the challenges that life can present. As a PhD graduate in Clinical Psychology from Boston University and through my years of experience that followed, I have dedicated myself to better understanding the human mind. I believe that better mental health is key to making our lives, our communities, and our world better. My goal is to work with my clients to help them better understand themselves and to equip them to achieve real and lasting changes that positively impact their lives.
