Work with Patricia Lord (MA, LCPC, RPT) - BetterHelp Online Therapist

Pati has been extremely helpful in my times of struggle over the past year and a half. I know that I can trust her and that she cares for me and wants to see me thrive and succeed in all areas of my life. Even as different difficulties came up she helped me focus on the positives and continue to push to a better mental and physical health without giving up.

I was matched with Pati after a few short survey questions about what kind of counselor I needed, and I couldn’t be happier! She always responds in a timely manner and I can tell that she puts a lot of thought and detail into her questions and responses to me. I love that we can email back and forth because I am a busy single mom.

Working with Patricia has been a really great experience.
