Written on Feb 04, 2026 after therapy with Patricia for 6 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, self esteem, anger management, coping with life changes, coaching, and adhd

I came to Patti in a state of total despair, exhausted from years of trying to stuff down my emotions just to stay functional. Patti helped me realize I had been living in survival mode. She provided a safe space for me to stop fighting my sadness and start processing it. For the first time, I don't feel burdened by my feelings; I've learned how to open my mind to them instead of ignoring them. Patti truly understood what I was going through and guided me toward a much healthier way to cope. I highly recommend her to anyone feeling overwhelmed by life.
