Rocio Patino

My communication style

My approach is warm, collaborative, and supportive. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can feel comfortable discussing difficult emotions, challenges, and life experiences. I believe therapy can work best when we work as a team.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I witnessed how difficult it could be for communities like mine to obtain mental health support. I initially wanted to work with Child Protective Services, but along the way, I realized that the greatest impact often happens before families reach a crisis point. This inspired me to focus on prevention and healing.

My goals for you

My goal is not to tell you what to do but to help you better understand yourself, identify what is getting in the way of the life you want, and develop skills and confidence to create meaningful change. Therapy is a collaborative process, and together we'll work toward goals that matter to you.

Our first session

We'll first focus on getting to know you and understanding what brings you to therapy. I'll get to learn about your experiences, current challenges, strengths, and goals while offering a space where you can share at your own pace. We'll work together to identify what you want to work on and create a plan that is meaningful and achievable.
