Patricia has been so helpful. I've been working on the crazymaking it is to leave my culty family church plus the chaos that brings to my close relationships. Patricia has been so helpful and patient and I work through the "what what the hell" and "what now." Im so glad to have her in my corner.

Patricia is generous and patient. She allows me to guide the session to my area of need, kindly listens to my half-baked analyses, and then helps me out words to my feelings. She also is particularly understanding and empathetic to the trials of parenthood. She offers clear observations and suggestions but never makes me feel like ‘I have to’ or ‘should’ accomplish them to move forward.

Patricia listens and understands what I want & need to work on. She offers clear and concise explanations for things and gives useful strategies for me to reduce my anxiety and care for myself.
