More about Patrick
- 40 years' experience
- Male
- LMFT
I am licensed in California with 40 + years of professional work experience as a school counselor, In-Home Outreach Counselor, Adventure-based Counselor, and ceremonialist weaved into my private practice. As a mindfulness practitioner, I utilize authentic compassionate communication, and nature's therapeutic qualities to relieve stress and anxiety, to honor life's challenges and transitional points through ceremony, and discover together new horizons for healthier choices.
My non-judgmental approach to therapy creates opportunities for a co-creative process that allows our treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
The first step to creating change is awareness, and you having the courage to reach out for help already shows me that you are ready and willing to begin the healing process.
I look forward to exploring alternative choices with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
