Dr. Diljot Sachdeva is a licensed clinical psychologist and the founder of The Village Family Health. He completed his doctoral education in clinical psychology at Marywood University and has worked in mental health for more than a decade, including a previous role as a Multicultural Specialist in university health and counseling services.

Earlier in his career, Dr. Sachdeva worked as a community mental health therapist in northeastern Pennsylvania and with OhioGuidestone in Cleveland, Ohio. Across these roles, he supported children and adolescents ages 2–18 and their families through in-home and school-based services, as well as Early Childhood Mental Health (ECMH) services. Working with children in their everyday environments gave him a close understanding of how family relationships, school experiences, and community support shape emotional well-being. These experiences continue to inform his emphasis on working alongside families and understanding each child within the context of their daily life.

His approach begins with listening. He works collaboratively with clients to understand their experiences, relationships, and the circumstances shaping their lives. Drawing on multicultural and attachment-based perspectives, he creates space to explore identity, belonging, and patterns in relationships.

As an immigrant, Dr. Sachdeva brings a personal appreciation for the role of culture and community in well-being. His professional interests include how race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, and other intersecting identities influence a person’s experiences, along with the barriers that can make it harder to seek or stay connected with care.

His work incorporates mindfulness and cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and responses. He also provides psychological evaluations for ADHD and is fluent in English, Hindi, and Punjabi.

Through The Village, he is developing a space where families and providers can build relationships, share knowledge, and work toward more connected care.

Appointment details for The Village will be shared as services become available.

NUTRITION & WELLNESS LEAD

Amy SachdevaM.A.T., MS, RD

Practical nutrition for the school day and the family table.

Credentials
Master of Arts in Teaching · Master of Science · Registered Dietitian

Amy Sachdeva is a registered dietitian, a public school teacher, and the Nutrition & Wellness Lead at The Village Family Health. Her two professions meet in the questions families ask every day: What can we pack for lunch that our child will actually eat? How can we invite a child to try something new while keeping the foods our family loves?

As a teacher, Amy knows that learning starts with curiosity. She brings that same approach to nutrition, drawing on her experience teaching community nutrition at Marywood University. At The Village, she is shaping nutrition education around the realities of family life: a short lunch period, a tight grocery budget, or a favorite recipe passed from one generation to the next.
