About me

I hold Dual Licenses in my state: LICENSED MARRIAGE and FAMILY THERAPIST and LICENSED PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR. I have been Practicing Individual, Couples and Family Therapy for more than 30 YEARS. My Degrees are a MASTERS of SCIENCE in COUNSELING PSYCHOLOGY and a BACHELORS of SCIENCE in EDUCATION. I was a teacher before becoming a therapist.

My therapeutic style is to meet you right where you are and tailor our sessions to your needs. I never have an agenda in therapy; it is a journey we take together. I will listen with compassion, understand without judgment, and offer practical advice as well as effective tools to help you cope and heal. My clinical orientation is Eclectic., a combination of Humanistic, Experiential, Family Systems and Jungian (I do work with dreams). I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy when I feel these approaches would be helpful. I also teach Effective Communication Skills and Mindfulness Meditation for Stress and Anxiety..

I can help with DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, BI-POLAR DISORDER, PTSD, SELF-ESTEEM, CO-DEPENDENCY, STRESS and many other Mental Health Issues. I am experienced in counseling GAY, LESBIAN, BI-SEXUAL and TRANSGENDERED CLIENTS. I am also a GRIEF COUNSELOR and can support you in your time of loss. As an EXPERIENCED COUPLES and FAMILY THERAPIST, I can help with RELATIONSHIP ISSUES, MARITAL and FAMILY PROBLEMS and PARENTING DIFFICULTIES. You can trust that I bring a WEALTH of PROFESSIONAL KNOWLEDGE and EXPERIENCE to my work with you.

I am a VOLUNTEER with the AMERICAN RED CROSS as both a FACILITATOR of RECONNECTION WORKSHOPS for MILITARY FAMILIES and a CASEWORKER in DISASTER SERVICES and SERVICE to MILITARY FAMILIES. I am also a PUBLISHED AUTHOR.

I truly want to help with your problems. It would be my privilege to consult with you and offer my professional guidance regarding any emotional, relationship issues or life challenges you may be experiencing. I hope you will reach out to me.

Working with Patricia has been extremely helpful in overcoming anxieties and fears that stem from childhood, emotional abuse. She is a great listener and offers tools that can help day to day when those fears and anxieties rise to the surface. I’ve noticed so much improvement since doing therapy with her.
