Description

Specialties

I am a licensed psychotherapist. For over 30 years I have helped clients struggling with eating disorders and body image issues.

The focus of our work will be to help you understand how compulsive eating and obsessing about your weight keep you disconnected from your feelings and how to reconnect with your feelings and needs.

I offer individual, group, and couple therapy. You will learn to:

*Identify and respond to your body’s hunger and satiety signals

*Set healthy boundaries

*Express emotions, rather than bingeing, purging or restricting food

You will develop effective ways to deal with life’s challenges.

I view disordered eating as the arrow pointing us to the issues in your life that you have been avoiding by focusing you energy on food and weight.

We will also explore how food can medicate anxiety and depression.

I am passionate about my work. My therapeutic style is interactive, sensitive and compassionate.

How do you know what therapist to pick? Well you want someone who has a solid clinical background and keeps up with changes in the field. You want someone who provides enough support to get you through the tough times but also a kick in the behind when you need it. You want someone who is intuitive and present in the moment and has a sense of humor. You want a Patricia. If transformation is what you’re after, healing in mind, body and spirit. you want Patricia in your corner.

Patricia is the most empathic and caring person I’ve ever met. When I first started seeing her, I had no idea what entering therapy would be like. I was in a deep depression and felt hopeless. Through Patricia’s gentle guidance, I have worked through many issues that were at the root of my depression and my disordered eating.
She is very warm and easy to talk to. I have deep trust issues and I have come to trust her the most in all of my relationships. Because of my trust issues, I had been estranged from my family for many years. With Patricia’s help, I have been able to reconnect with all of them. This is something I never thought I’d be able to do.
I have a very high regard for Patricia and highly recommend her. Her knowledge of the human heart is remarkable.

Patricia was an enormous help to me during a very difficult time in my life. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, but she was also a deeply empathetic person who made it easy to talk about feelings I had never spoken about with anyone. She helped me to uncover many suppressed emotions and memories that motivated many of my actions, and gave me the tools to cope with my feelings. I am so grateful for all the work she has done with me and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Patricia is a wonderful therapist specializing in eating disorders. She has been enormously helpful to my family in working through a very difficult time and made a really significant impact on my daughter’s road to recovery. I recommend her without reserve to anyone who is looking for help with this very difficult problem. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful, kind and gentle, and yet not afraid to look the hard issues and questions square in the face. It’s a very effective combination of skills and talents.

Patricia is a gifted and extraordinary therapist whose primary focus is eating disorders. While she serves other clients as well, I can only speak to my experience. Working with Patricia has brought me a deeper understanding of my eating disorder, it’s root causes and the impact it has had in my life. Although I am still in process, I can say I never would have had the kind of healing I have experienced with a less intuitive and honest clinician. She is tough when necessary yet unfailingly empathic and supportive.
If you need help with your life please call her.
