Patricia Williams

My communication style

Working with me, you'll experience a sense of safety, trust, and openness. I foster a relaxed, empathetic atmosphere where you feel comfortable exploring your emotions and thoughts. My approach encourages you to express yourself freely while making therapy feel approachable and personalized to your needs.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to this career because my brother suffered from mental illness as a child and my mother did everything she could to get him help. Today my brother is thriving and facing life challenges with a new optimistic outlook. I wanted to encourage others and support clients to be the best versions of themselves.

My goals for you

I start by discussing your overall desires and reasons for seeking therapy, exploring what you want to achieve both short-term and long-term. I work with you to break down larger goals into smaller, attainable steps, preventing overwhelm and boosting motivation. I regularly check in on progress, discuss challenges, and celebrate achievements.

Our first session

In our first session, you'll learn about my background and our work together, including policies and your role in therapy. You can expect me to be kind, professional, courteous, and open. I focus on building rapport and creating a non-judgmental, safe environment where you feel comfortable.
