Hi!
My name is Patty. I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Michigan with 8 years of professional work experience.
My background includes helping clients in all of life's stages with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, & depression.
I treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
My special skill is to know when people need a gentle reminder and when they need to be held firmly accountable. I meet people's needs. Let's start where you are and get you where you want to go.
I believe you are the expert in your own life. Allow me to be the objective observer to guide and assist you in this stage of your journey by sharing skills of relation strategies, mindfulness, self-awareness and creative expression. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage. Congratulations! I really look forward to working with you.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall rating:
Patty is very caring and knowledgeable. She has always gave very good advice and shared good ideas.
She has a voice so touching and sincere that, every week, she helps me believe I might be stronger and more capable than I sometimes think.
I've been working with Patricia for 5 months now. The support and guidance I've received has been so life changing. This has been the hardest 5 months of my life. Having her support has really made this time go so much better then I ever expected.
She’s a comforting presence and genuinely a great listener!
My contact with Patricia has been very helpful. She asks good questions and gets right to the point. She is very supportive. I feel that she truly cares for me.
Great listener. Offers different ways to look at things and work through things.
Very professional and supportive. This is 1st time for me to have therapy and she has made it very comfortable. I have only gotten started but it has already made a difference in my daily outlook. She has opened my mind to other ways to make my issues not easier...because there is no easy way to do anything that has happened in my life...but ways to make them more bearable.
When I joined betterhelp, I wasn't completely sure what to expect. My girlfriend recommended me to go so I signed up. After doing the questionnaire I was matched with Patricia. She has been so amazing listening to me and giving me guidance. I'm looking forward to my time that im gonna spend here, as i heal and grow into a better person. my experience on betterhelp has been so awesome.
