Otter Creek Associates is pleased to announce the opening of a new collaborative psychotherapy and wellness practice located in the heart of the Essex Junction Five Corners area. Otter Creek Associates has served the psychiatric and psychological needs of children, adults and families in Vermont for over 30 years. Our new office location is a teaching/learning practice fostering the continuing education of the next generation of clinicians by experienced professionals. Cyrus Patten, a licensed clinical social worker, is the Clinical Director and a clinician in the practice. He has this to say of the announcement: “This model of practice is so important because it allows for clinicians from so many different backgrounds, professionally and personally, to come together and learn from one another in order to serve this community to the best of everyone’s ability.” He continues that “it’s a great way to create a community practice that’s greater than the sum of its respective parts”.
The clinicians are currently accepting new clients of all age ranges. Services are offered at their 10-12 Pearl Street location in Essex Junction, in the community, and in homes when appropriate. In an effort to enhance access to the highest quality service possible, the practice is also developing collaborative relationships with local healthcare providers and organizations of all types in the Essex and greater Chittenden County area.
