It is possible for life to be deeply satisfying, fulfilling whatever the beginning and however difficult or confusing the present time might seem. For over 35 years in my practice, I have witnessed this again and again, and have developed a deep respect for the stamina and resilience of the human spirit. I work to provide you with the kind of supportive context that can help you find your innate gifts, and make real the changes you envision. I focus on the ways awareness of difficulty or pain can be a key to hidden strength and renewal.
I have particular expertise helping adults resolve traumatic experience, including physical and sexual abuse, criminal assault, and witnessing traumatic events. I also work with you to help resolve relationship difficulties, work dissatisfactions, grief, depression and anxiety resulting from trauma or life transitions recognizing patterns and discovering new possibilities.
In addition to my psychotherapy practice, I am a writer, university faculty, and I provide continuing education trainings to psychologists and other licensed mental health professionals. For more information visit www.megpatterson.com."
I trust in the creative, restorative power of the human psyche."
