About me
As a licensed therapist in Louisiana, I bring three decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on creating affirming, culturally responsive spaces for diverse communities, with specialized expertise in addressing depression, relationship dynamics, family conflicts, and trauma recovery.
I am deeply committed to understanding the intersectional experiences of marginalized communities, with a focused approach to exploring multicultural concerns, navigating experiences of prejudice and discrimination, and supporting individuals managing challenging mental health experiences. My therapeutic style emphasizes empowerment, respect, and collaborative healing.
My professional approach integrates evidence-based practices with a profound understanding of individual lived experiences. I strive to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their challenges, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. Whether you're confronting complex emotional patterns, processing difficult experiences, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you with genuine compassion and professional expertise.

Patricia makes me feel like I’m safe to feel what I’m feeling during sessions and reminds me of techniques I can use when my feelings get too big during the time between sessions. She’s great at what she does and is always there for me when I need to be reminded that I’m not the absolute worst.

She has helped to reassure me of who I was. My decisions/thoughts are not met with arguments, but actual conversations.
