About
Hello, I am Patricia Alice, LCSW and I have provided outpatient psychotherapy services for over 42 years. I am a generalist and now work exclusively with tele-health. Therefore my experience is a unique blend of breadth and depth. My approach My approach is eclectic and I utilize (but not limited to) a combination of problem solving, insight, CBT, confrontation, client centered, strength based and self esteem support. My focus I have worked with a very wide range of issues. Most seek help for depression, anxiety, panic attacks, past/current trauma, family issues, bi polar diagnosis, relationship problems, work and career issues, postpartum depression, parenting and grief/loss as well as life transition issues like retirement and/or aging. My communication style I am ‘down to earth’ and direct. I frequently utilize humor. I am positive and upbeat and look for client actions to indicate their improvement and response to treatment. I make suggestions for change or insight during sessions and provide encouragement with client follow up. My journey to mental healthcare Psychotherapy is a very effective way to reduce human suffering. I experienced much growth through my own use of therapy many years ago. Through that experience I realized this was the right path for me. At this point I have had a long and productive career doing what I enjoy and have helped many people in the process. The rewards have been remarkable. My goals for you I view the client and myself as an equal partnership with the purpose of making things better in their life. Therefore, deciding upon priorities is an ongoing organic process we tackle together. My first session with you The first session is an opportunity to introduce ourselves. In addition this session is utilized to gather important demographic and history information as well as acquaint the client on what to expect in the therapeutic process and legal considerations such as confidentiality.
