I specialize in anxiety, OCD, phobias, perfectionism, and stress - especially when they intersect with queer and trans experiences or neurodivergence.
Hello! I am Pat (they/he), a Queer and trans Licensed Social Worker. My past work as a neuroscience researcher, along with my own mental health struggles, drove me towards therapy as a calling. I am Queer-friendly, fat-positive, kink and ENM friendly, and anti-oppression in my stances; as much as I can, I want the therapy space to be an open and healing environment rather than one that recreates systemic inequality.

Managing our mental health can sometimes feel like a full-time job you never applied for. It's the emotional weight you feel when getting out of bed and the overtime hours spent in constant battle with your own mind. If you find yourself running on fumes before the day even begins, I want you to know that I see you and I’ve been where you are. Together, we will tailor a plan that respects your unique journey and helps you move toward a future where your mental health is a manageable part of your life, not the boss of it.

As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I specialize in treating Anxiety Spectrum Disorders which include Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, and Specific Phobias.
In any psychotherapy the relationship between the client and their therapist is of paramount importance. With that in mind, I prioritize getting to know each person that I work with in a meaningful way as we engage in the process of symptom reduction. I pride myself on being able to build comfortable discussion with adults, adolescents, and children and tailor communication to best fit each developmental stage. When working with families I ensure that each family members' concern is heard and work to join with each member while remaining focused on addressing the issue which brought them to treatment.

Life can bring unhappiness, distress, and uncertainty. It can also bring opportunities for satisfaction, connection with others, and meaning. To realize that something in your life needs to change and to seek support in doing so takes courage. The support of a well-trained, compassionate, and supportive therapist can provide needed comfort and security—whether to provide support during a stressful period, to address deeper issues in forming and improving relationships, to adjust to a loss or life transition, or simply because you know that you’re unhappy and are uncertain how to change.

I ventured into the counseling field because I found a knack and passion for working with folks walking through difficult times. From there, I felt this passion flourish into a calling. I work as both a professor and clinician, teaching the fundamentals of counseling to my students while practicing what I preach in the clinical setting. My clients describe me as caring, empathetic, insightful, intelligent, and funny (counseling without a well-placed sense of humor is a rather drab experience for the client and the clinician!). I am now excited to offer my services through Perez Therapy, LLC.!
