About Patricia

My extensive clinical experience has focused on cultural diversity with individuals, couples and families who struggle with depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, couple/family dysregulation and conflict, OCD, ADHD, medical trauma, traumatic brain injury/neurodivergent individuals and impact on support systems, with client ages from 16+ years of age. My clientele appreciate that I am culturally competent and respectful regardless of culture of origin and religious affiliation. My clients feel validated and supported during our interactions, which is always my goal. I provide therapy that is conducive to client needs; there is no such thing as “one size fits all.” For this reason, I carefully evaluate client needs and goals and focus my sessions on support and collaboration beginning at intake. Few therapists understand neurodivergent conditions such as TBI, as I do, making therapy for these conditions less accessible. Mental health, substance abuse, and medical traumas are often improperly addressed, leading to poor treatment. I value being thorough in my work to ensure my clients receive the comprehensive and compassionate treatment they deserve. There is no hierarchy in my sessions; I see myself as your source of support and want you to have a voice in every session. Read more Show less
