Twenty years ago, my life was turned upside down when my husband walked out the door, leaving me to raise our two year old daughter and dreams I thought we had built together since our second year in college. I couldn't imagine how I could go on. I couldn't imagine how anyone who'd been though this sort of pain had gone on. But, to my surprise, I did go on, grow, developed new and stronger emotional muscles. And formed a new dream: I wanted everyone to believe they could get there (peace/happiness) from here (pain/anxiety/confusion). So, I went back to school and, with a lot of family help, got this degree that allowed me to begin helping others help themselves. For over 20 years now, I've worked with women growing through divorce, adults facing stage of life changes, people of all ages seeking to believe in - or even identify - their strengths, accept and work on their weaknesses. We start by learning to trust each other; we start by trusting the client's self empowerment (even if the client doesn't really believe - at first). Then we form a two-person team and reframe negative beliefs, pinpoint resources, figure out distorted thoughts that are holding the client back and need to be abandoned. We do in-session exercises, refer to research and books, and connect dots in belief sets until...we get there from here. And, almost all the time, we do. We will - you and I. Almost no problem is too big such that two people working hand in hand with a sound knowledge base, can't overcome it. In time, the problem that seems so big today will be a learning experience and a memory. We'll get you there. Let's start now.
Additional areas of focus:Addictions, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Intimacy-related issues, Eating disorders, Sleeping disorders, Parenting issues, Career difficulties, Coping with life changes, Abandonment, Aging and geriatric issues, Commitment issues, Divorce and separation, Emptiness, Family of origin issues, Guilt and shame, Isolation / loneliness, Life purpose, Mood disorders, Multicultural concerns, Panic disorder and panic attacks, Prejudice and discrimination, Self-love

Patrice has been a wonderful therapist for me over the last several months. I had one before her and I never really clicked or was able to feel comfortable opening up and discussing things. But with Pat I feel like I am safe and validated in how I feel and I also can tell she truly cares about me, not just getting the hour over with. I appreciate her so much!

I have thoroughly enjoyed Pat as my counselor so far. She takes the time to listen and is not quick to offer a solution right away, but listens to my heart and allows me to say all I need to say before responding. She is walking with me through a particularly challenging season in my life right now and I'm grateful for her expertise and her presence overall. She's fantastic!
