Lyneia Richardson, PhD | Licensed Psychologist & Founder of Melanated Women’s Therapy, LLC

Hi, I’m Dr. Richardson and I am a licensed psychologist dedicated to the psychological well-being of women and mothers. My practice, Melanated Women’s Therapy, is a specialized space for navigating the major transitions of womanhood and motherhood—from pregnancy and postpartum to fertility, reproductive concerns, and the evolution of relationships and emotional well-being across the lifespan.

With nearly 15 years of clinical experience, my approach is integrative, culturally responsive, and deeply grounded in the power of the therapeutic relationship. I look beyond to honor the broader social and cultural contexts that shape a woman’s mental health.

My goal is to provide a thoughtful and supportive space where you can explore challenges, make meaning of your story, and find your footing during times of change. While my work centers the experiences of melanated women, I welcome women of all backgrounds seeking culturally responsive care.
