Amazing
Written on Feb 26, 2024 after therapy with Patricia for 1 year and 9 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and self esteem
This is my first time in therapy, and Patricia has made it so comfortable, enjoyable, and I'm actually getting something out of it. During our sessions she let's me express what I need to, but she also challenges me and provides great feedback. After our sessions she types up a summary of our session and provides more feedback and usually leaves me with a few questions to either respond to or just ponder until our next session. She encourages me to take the group classes that are offered, and throughout the week she always makes herself available to communicate if I have any questions, thoughts, or just updates of how things are going. I highly recommend Patricia and BetterHelp.

Patricia is an incredible therapist! I started therapy around 8 months ago and I was hesitant about talking to someone about my problems. I am so thankful for Patricia and her expertise because I can now say I have the tools necessary to go through life. I enjoy every session I have with her and I trust her completely, which for me has been hard in the past. I cannot thank her enough for all the help she has provided me.

I have only have Patricia for two sessions and I am loving it so far. I recently been having panic attacks, being stressed bride that is about to get married and dealing with a whole lot of changes in my life, but Patricia has been able to guide me step by step. She really observes your concerns and gives you exercises that will help you practice it in the most positive and healthy way. She has helped me feel comfortable and always leaves her door open whenever I need her. I look forward to more of our sessions and look forward to improvement in my mental health and the way I do things.

So easy to connect with Trish….she is “real” with you and always has practical examples (homework) to help move you through your own “work”, staying empathetic and reminding you to be “present “ ( which I needed!). Phenomenal support .. I highly recommend and trust Trish!

I’m new to therapy and I feel the match with my first therapist, Trish, was perfect. She encourages me to open up and understands exactly what I’m trying to convey along with the underlying issues. I wanted a practice-based approach and she has been helping me with that. She listens and responds in a timely manner. Moreover, she’s friendly, kind and non-judgemental, which are such great qualities, and particularly so when one is opening up, showing all of one’s vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

Patricia makes me feel supported and heard and meets me 'where I am at' on whatever I want to discuss. I like the way she gives me a range of things to practice and think about and tools to try. I feel much more resilient from just a few sessions.

Has really helped me learn a lot about relationships, boundaries, needs, etc. Has helped me address where negative behaviors stem from, how to recognize that, and then correct it. And has similarly assisted in giving guidance and strategies on managing fears, sadness, and feelings of stress.
