I would have not made it through the last year of my life had it not been for my weekly time with Patricia. She is a kind, caring and compassionate therapist and would highly recommend her to anyone.

I love that Patricia lends me the space to process out loud and draw out potential strategies for addressing my needs. I feel like she truly hears me.

This year is being very complex and challenging for pretty much everyone and I am glad to have decided to start this path and I got luck having Patricia as counselor. She is helping me on making some clarity regarding what I really want and what is the best for me right now. It’s a moment of deep losses and loneliness but also a moment where I could achieve results I wasn’t expecting on the professional side, so this emotional roller coaster is not easy to ride, but with the support I’m receiving from Patricia I am feeling better.
