About Athelas Psychiatry

Our Story
Athelas Psychiatry was established as the clinical practice of Dr Megan Richardson, a psychiatrist with a special interest in the care of people navigating neurodivergence, and complex mental health concerns. The clinic was created to provide a therapeutic environment where high-quality psychiatric care can be delivered with consistency, depth, and compassion.
​​​
Athelas Psychiatry is also sustained by its broader “support team” at home—our dogs Walter and Ori, and our cats Penny, Angel, and Seymour. You may see them helping out in the background during telehealth sessions.
​
The clinic is currently undergoing structural and organisational changes, and we are mindful that transitions can be challenging. Throughout this process, we remain committed to supporting our clients and their families with transparency, care, and continuity of service.
