Becca HS

Becca Richards LCSW, PMH-C

Owner & Therapist, EMDR Trained
Hello! I'm Becca, owner and psychotherapist at the Village. Building a family feels like building a boat while you are in the water sometimes, right? I have been walking alongside others in their parenting journey for many years, and I am delighted to offer a space that is dedicated to this very special time of life. Whether you are planning your family and having fertility struggles along the way, or you are having your children and need support to navigate all of the ups and downs, I am here to walk alongside you. Everyone needs a village, allow us to be that support system for you.

Rachael McKinney

Intern and Support Group Leader
Hello! I'm Rachael. I have been walking alongside families since 2012 as a birth and postpartum doula and home visitor. I have a deep commitment to supporting individuals and families through the transitions of pregnancy, birth and parenting. I bring both a clinical lens and compassion to our sessions. My goal is to create a safe and validating space for clients to share and explore feelings and emotions because this stage of life can feel heavy. I can't wait to meet you!

Allison Wiste Webb, LCSW

Therapist, EMDR Trained
Hello! I’m Allison and I’m so excited to be a part of the Village. Starting and raising a family presents many unique circumstances that can be challenging to navigate. We are here to help! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have spent most of my career working with women and children in different capacities. From clinical and home settings to ranch and outdoor settings, it’s been an honor getting to know each client and lending guidance and support. I know from experience that it can be hard to ask for help. I'm here to help explore your thoughts, feelings, and emotions and be a support for you and your family in whatever way I can.

Kirsten Norris, MSW

Therapist
Hello! I’m Kirsten, and I’m excited to be part of the team at The Village. I know what it's like to face life’s unexpected turns - grief, loss, major transitions, and the overwhelming pressure that can come with trying to hold everything together for yourself and your family. These challenges have fueled my passion for helping others find healing and clarity during difficult times. I’m especially drawn to supporting individuals and families as they navigate change - whether that’s starting a new chapter in life, the challenges of parenting, or working through pain that feels too heavy to carry alone. My approach is grounded in empathy, trust, and the belief that people are incredibly resilient, especially when they don’t have to walk the path alone. I’d be honored to walk alongside you and your family as you move toward healing and growth.
