Life is full of ups and downs but the true test in life is how you overcome those obstacles. My name is Riddhi Sevak-Patel and I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist. Welcome to my page, I hope that this allows you to get to know me a little better! I received my MSW back in 2010 from the University of Alabama after completing the advanced standing program specializing in Children, Adolescents and their families and graduating with honors. I have worked in all aspects of healthcare ranging from acute inpatient ICU care to out-patient rehabilitation working with children and adults alike. Outside of Better Help, I have my own virtual private practice where I work with both teenagers and adults who struggle with depression, suicidal thoughts, grief, trauma and substance abuse, to name a few. As a working mother of three, I understand the struggles faced with the "mommy burden" and can empathize towards those dealing with the anxiety that comes from "doing it all." You are not alone. My approach to therapy is mostly a humanistic approach mixed with CBT and DBT. People are a lot more resilient than they sometimes realize and I believe that we all have the ability to "find ourselves" even in the most severe circumstances. My goal is to help you realize your strengths and help you process your feeling so that you can move onto becoming a better you.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in Arizona and Nevada with 8 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

I am committed to assisting you with identifying the changes you want in your life and then exploring different strategies to help you achieve your goals.

I work with the individual to find the approach that best meets their needs and work to provide the tools that are needed to effect change and promote growth.

As an Integrative Functional Medicine certified specialist (IFMCP , I offer clients state-of-the-art, evidence-based knowledge and skills to optimize their health and well-being. Vibrant mental health requires a commitment to lifestyle choices that consistently support mitochondrial energy and vitality. Metabolic metabolism is key.

My PRCFMP, HMA and relapse prevention approach to addiction is deeply rooted in removing all neuro-chemical/energetic addictive substances and processes which affect: (1) mood, (2) self-control, (3) cognition, and (4) behavior.

I strive to create a safe environment where you feel welcome to discuss the difficult areas in your life. I build trust to help strengthen our therapeutic partnership.

I utilize strength-based and trauma-informed care. I will help you with pain management, decreasing anxiety and regulating mood, navigating life changing events, improving positive thoughts, and processing grief and loss.

We all struggle in some way. Reaching out for support from friend(s), family, community, and/or therapist is what we (hopefully) do. That can be among our greatest struggles -- asking for help. Counseling or therapy is one way to get the objective and private support you need. I can assist you in identifying and altering the patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that keep you from moving forward in life. Bringing 30+ years of experience in the field of clinical social work, I help my clients through use of an eclectic approach within a cognitive-behavioral framework. The approach involves honest, reflective processing, measurable goal-setting, psychoeducation, and respectful human support. My clients gain understanding of the core brain-outer brain dynamics and how to take control of those through various assignments and exercises which challenge current patterns of thinking and managing emotions such as fear and anger. We discuss and examine behaviors that are counterproductive and no longer useful and work together to develop new, more productive behaviors. I bring extensive experience in diagnosing and treating clients with anxiety disorders (including PTSD), depression, addictions, and relationship problems. Effective counseling and therapy does not have to be overly complicated but should consistently challenge you to reveal yourself and come to answer some of your own questions. As such, I offer my clients insights and information to help them regulate emotion, solve problems, answer their own questions and learn to act through love of self and others. Working with clients is both an opportunity and a privilege for me. I would be happy to chat with you about my counseling approach and how I might help you in your journey so that you can make an informed decision about seeking counseling or therapy.
