Understanding the Therapy Process

This form of treatment involves one-on-one sessions between a client and a trained mental health professional. It focuses on identifying thought patterns, behaviors, and emotional responses to facilitate personal change and symptom relief.

To Change or Not to Change Myself?

 In this video, I reflect on an experience from a workshop about creating loving relationships and finding your authentic self. Should we change ourselves to be accepted by others, or stay true to who we are? I explore this question and the balance between authenticity and growth.

“Patrick saved my marriage. First session in, he was able to connect with my husband — someone who says maybe 10 words a day. I’ve seen therapists since I was 16, and he is hands down one of THE best.”
