Patricia Carlos

My communication style

I am empathic, warm, non-judgmental, and an active listener. I meet you where you are and support you in making desired changes. I may also gently challenge you to promote growth or offer a different perspective, always ensuring you feel understood and respected.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been drawn to helping others and social justice. What drives me is making a difference in people's lives and supporting them in their healing.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is collaborative. I encourage you to focus on areas you'd like to change or improve, and we address them from a strengths-based perspective. You identify the steps you're willing to take, and I support you in achieving your desired goals.

Our first session

I understand that a first session can be difficult as you're being vulnerable with someone you've just met. I focus on building a therapeutic relationship and connection while gathering information to understand what brings you to therapy. I'll also explore your psychosocial history to understand how it may be impacting the present.
