Who We Are

Ryan Scott, PhD is the Director of Vista.  He is passionate about promoting a psychological healthy workplace and improving the therapist experience when they do their valuable work.  He also works as a consultant to other group practice owners and founders across the United States and Canada.  In his free time, he loves exploring the Oregon outdoors, spending time with his family, and learning about the newest tech gadget.

Darcy Knight, M.Ed., is a co-owner of Vista Counseling and the director of our Wellness Center. But she also loves greeting clients in our lobby, which she helped design with a spa in mind. She knows the practice from top to bottom, and can answer nearly every question you can think of, from billing to where we got our great photos! When not helping our team lead the practice, she is busy spending time with her kids and enjoying the outdoors.

Jenny Mauro, PhD is our Clinical Director and a psychologist at our Eugene office. She looks forward each day to providing supervision to our pre-licensed therapists, running clinical consultation groups, and offering an extra layer of support to our team of therapists. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family, reading, crafting with friends, and playing with her French Bulldogs.

Julie Liszka, LCSW is our Assistant Director of Operations and has been with Vista since 2011. She is the “Swiss army knife” of the practice and holds many behind-the-scenes roles to help the practice run smoothly.  In her free time, she enjoys playing pickleball, obsessing over her cats, doing crossword puzzles, and spending time with her family.

Beau Garner, LMFT is an Assistant Director at our Eugene location.  Beau spent several years as a therapist with Vista before transitioning to his current position in which he is now able to utilize his clinical background on a managerial level.  When not in the Eugene office, Beau enjoys spending time outdoors running and hiking, and also spending time with his wife watching their children participate in sports.

Leslie also finds joy in volunteer work, and works to create opportunities for Vista staff to have fun and give back to the community throughout the year.

Angie Mayol joined the team in 2018 and is one of those smiling faces you’ll see when you walk into our Eugene office.
