OCD, Body Dysmorphic disorder, Panic, and Phobias are my specialty. These challenges can at times completely put someone's life on hold for years as well as result in misdiagnosis and a lifetime of suffering until it is properly addressed. I have been privileged to be trained by some of the best physicians and psychologists in the country who believe in recovery and scientific research. Utilizing individually tailored Exposure therapies as well as other behavioral and cognitive approaches I will help you free yourself from these fears and get your life back on track.

I work with adults, couples, and veterans dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationships, life transitions, stress, and more. My style is friendly, collaborative, and straightforward, and I truly believe everyone has strengths we can work with.

I specialize in delivering evidence-based, or science backed, therapy to children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and emotion regulation. I also work with parents to help them understand and support their child’s emotions and behaviors. I've worked with clients from a range of diverse backgrounds and believe that each person is the expert on their own experience, so I tailor every treatment plan to meet the specific needs of each client. My favorite part of therapy is empowering the clients I work with to recognize their unique strengths and build the lives they would most like to lead.

Hi, I’m Pati, and I mostly work with people living with OCD, sometimes alongside trauma or PTSD, as well as people navigating different types of anxiety, like generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic disorder, and phobias, including agoraphobia. I also help with urge-driven repetitive behaviors that can feel really hard to control, like hair pulling or skin picking. If something in your life is getting in the way of how you want to live, we can look at it together: what’s behind it, what it’s doing, and why it keeps happening.

I see you—managing responsibilities, meeting expectations, and carrying the weight of past and present experiences. Maybe you’re feeling stuck, wondering why life keeps happening to you. Perhaps you’re struggling to set boundaries, battling self-doubt, or feeling like a burden. It’s overwhelming. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

My approach to therapy involves moving towards collaborative change and using scientifically supported treatments to help clients achieve the change they want to see in their lives, whether it be emotional, behavioral, in their thinking, or in their relationships. Because our past informs our present, treatment may involve clients both exploring past experiences along with working towards in-the-moment changes to help accomplish their desired goals.

As a trauma psychologist, I specialize in treating trauma across the lifespan by helping clients move from surviving to thriving. My work is grounded in evidence based practices, but just as importantly, in empathy, and genuine connection.
