HEALTHePATH was established by Terry Richardson in November of 2003 following the closure of St. John's outpatient counseling center in Joplin, Missouri. Terry was the Therapy Services Coordinator, responsible for providing individual, couples and family counseling, developing groups, and the administration of all outpatient mental health services.  HEALTHePATH created an opportunity to combine his years of administrative and clinical experience establishing a unique practice focusing on holistic treatment, creativity and individual growth potential.
