"I enjoy helping people to improve their overall quality of life. I believe that therapy can be a profoundly positive experience, and I strive to develop a trusting relationship that fosters safety so that you feel comfortable to begin your journey of healing and growth. Whether you are struggling with past pain, current life transitions, overwhelming emotions, or future worries, our journey will assist you in living your best life. "

"If you are looking for extra support through a challenging situation or you're ready now to move toward changes you've wanted for some time, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. I use the words "working" and "with" purposely because therapy is work in that it will take effort and intentionality; and I use the word with because you will not go on this journey alone. As a therapist I enjoy working with people of all ages. I have found that no matter what age, there is a similar desire to be heard and understood, to find hope, to become empowered to overcome, and a desire for healthy relationships."

"Are you feeling depressed? Unsure of how to manage your anxiety, or maybe even your child's depression or anxiety? Hello, my name is Patience Taba, and providing therapy and being dedicated to assisting individuals on their journey to mental health wellness has been my life's passion. I offer therapy in a kind, respectful environment that allows the client to discover their feelings, their passions and the direction of their life. Through therapy, I hope to assist each client on their journey toward creating the life of their heart's desire."

"As a therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life."

"Oftentimes my clients already have the solutions to their problems but feel powerless to move forward due to overwhelming anxiety or depression. The natural stress that we feel as a result of just living our lives can become amplified to the point where it interferes with our daily functioning and enjoyment of life. In treatment we will use a combination of traditional talk therapy, psychological education, and psychological technique implementation to cope with stress in healthy ways and lower your anxiety and depression so that you can move out of survival mode and into thriving mode."

"Would you like to manage your anxiety, work on your marriage or deal with unhealthy habits and boundaries? I have had experience working with children and adults who have embarked on an adventure leading to better mental health in their personal lives. I like to see an array of clients including individuals, couples, and children. I also work with family members of patients diagnosed with mental illness or a disorder, helping them to reach a level of empowerment and contentment as they face their challenges."

"I provide counseling to individuals, couples, and families in a warm and supportive environment. I strongly believe in the power of the human connection and have seen beautiful healing, change and growth in that space. I am honored to join and walk with my clients on their path to inner peace. We all hold the strength within ourselves to overcome and persevere during life's challenges and I aim to help clients identify and realize that potential within themselves. I use multiple treatment modalities and techniques, with the therapeutic relationship being at the heart of all my work."

"If you have children with difficult to manage behaviors, seek to learn better parenting skills or are a teacher/daycare provider who needs training to handle misbehavior in the classroom, you have come to the right place! I specialize in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) which is an empirically supported, short-term live coaching program for parents of children with behavioral problems. I also train local preschools, daycares and other agencies who wish to learn techniques for understanding and handling behavioral problems in the classroom. In addition, I provide psychological testing and individual therapy for children and adults."

"I recognize the hard job of being an adolescent in today's world. Depression and anxiety can be so overwhelming and can lead to a spiral of negative thinking. Sometimes it feels like people just don't get you, and you just feel so....stuck. Sometimes getting stuck can lead to unhelpful behaviors, including acting out, self-harming, and substance use. Learning effective coping skills can help get you to a better place where you can begin to feel "unstuck." "

"Parenting is very difficult! Being a kid these days is not easy either! We understand that sometimes you need to just problem solve and learn tools. We partner with you to help your family mend important relationships, learn healthier coping skills, add some positive strategies, and live without self harm. We understand that sometimes people can get blindsided by emotional pain and can make terrible choices. We hope to help you untangle the mess so you and your loved ones can rebuild trust and start living positively again."

"We all seek connection, a sense of belonging, and also we seek to have a sense of purpose and value. When we find ourselves in relationships where we feel a lack of connection or a sense of not being valued by our partner we tend to loose vitality and/or security. During these moments we can feel like we have failed."

"For all of us, life brings change. For many of us, those changes compel us to look inward and urge us to look more closely at our circumstances. My goal is to create a safe space for you to examine your life and make meaningful choices. My role is to welcome you with non-judgmental acceptance of where you are, listen closely to discover where you wish to be, and facilitate thoughtful discussions and techniques to assist you on that journey. My integrative approach combines features of psychodynamic, relational, existential, cognitive/behavioral, and systems therapies."

"I feel fortunate to work in this profession and am honored by the trust that develops between my patients and me. Each of us often encounters difficulty along this life's journey and need to find someone to help sort out, understand and develop new tools to make our way. Sometimes therapy is a luxury and sometimes a necessity. I can help you meet the challenge when it is a necessity and help you grow to your highest and best potential when it is a luxury."

"As your therapist, my focus is on improving your quality of life. Whether your past haunts you or your life overwhelms you, I will help you in developing healthy ways of coping and achieving more balance in your life. That is how my therapy works. I can help you find your way."

"I offer warm, insightful, and collaborative psychotherapy to help children, adolescents and adults change behaviors and patterns, become unstuck and improve the quality of their lives and relationships. My work focuses on major issues including children and adolescents, attachment, abandonment, grief and loss, life transition, separation/divorce, couples and families in crisis, intimacy issues, eating disorders, anxiety and depression, spirituality, and victims of violence. My goal is to help children/adolescents, individuals, couples, and families to release their traumas, to help them find healthier ways of communicating, and to regain the ability to live with themselves as well as others."

"An opportunity for personal growth and peace of mind... Establishing a positive therapist/client relationship is essential in reaching the outcome you desire. Therapy is a colloborative process where you identify the areas in your life that no longer serve you. That said, I offer a quiet, safe, and trusting environment. You will be met by someone who is both approachable and compassionate."

"Are you ready to make changes in your life, your relationships, your marriage? Let's get started changing patterns of conflict, infidelity, negative emotions, and dysfunctional family patterns. My professional training includes a Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology- Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of San Francisco, and a Master of Arts degree in Counselor Education from the University of Wyoming. I have extensive experience working with couples, individuals, single adults, and teens. I have four children and have been married for 30 years."

"Is your heart racing and you can't make a decision? Say hello to anxiety; but don't stop there. Don't let this block you from your goals. I will teach you to remove distressing feelings. Take the time to focus on "you"! Together; we will identify what is standing in your way and move it. 'Two' is better than 'one'; in making a change. Let me be the other 'one' to help you revive the authentic 'you'."

"Each person has a sacred story to share and I recognize the strength it takes for someone to reveal their pages. I place high importance on creating a warm and safe environment and believe that it is essential to the therapeutic process. I hold true to the belief that each individual has the ability for growth and change and would like to assist in that process while encouraging congruence between one's beliefs, values, and behaviors."

"Life is full of unexpected challenges and navigating it as a family can feel even more overwhelming. Children that are newly diagnosed with a medical condition, living with a chronic illness or adjusting to home after a hospitalization, may need support to cope with their experiences. Siblings of a brother/sister with special needs, children coping with a parent or loved one’s illness, separation or death also deserve the guidance of a caring adult. Providing a safe space to express themselves, receive age-appropriate information and have the opportunity to learn healthy coping skills is what Child Life Mommy offers."
