She is immensely caring and didn’t need to know you from the start. Kind, understanding, listening are the 3 words I would use to describe Patricia. She definitely helped me. I know she’ll help many more.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I adore my therapist Patricia! She is so kind and is really helping me branch out. I have a hard time coming out of my comfort zone but with her help I'm finding the courage to do things I've always wanted to try but never did because of my fears. Thank you Patricia!
Patricia is very calm and understanding, won't sugarcoat your problems and will try and offer you multiple solutions to help u resolve problems
