About Patricia
Hey!
I’m Patricia or you can just call me Pat. I am a Registered Social Worker with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW). Having taken a non-traditional and somewhat backwards route to get here, more than a decade of working in the mental health and addictions sector and then receiving a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis- I think I have finally nailed down my approach. I provide virtual individual therapy to adults and hold a specialization in addictions (substance use) and have extensive experience working with concurrent disorders.
I aim to create a safe and nonjudgemental environment in which we can focus on utilizing your inherent strengths. Having navigated my own life experiences, I believe in taking a relational and empathetic approach to care so we can collaborate and explore your internal world to build insight, awareness and achieve growth through action. I value showing up authentically and while therapy can be heavy, uncomfortable or even scary, I’ll sit through that with you and even throw in the occasional joke or two.
My approach is eclectic to ensure my clients’ unique individual needs are addressed. Some of the evidenced based modalities I will draw from are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Therapy.
Outside of work, I try not to take things too seriously- what is life without play? I love to work out and believe movement is medicine. You’ll find me chasing adrenaline, hyper fixating on my latest obsession, planning a vacation, checking out the newest restaurants or simply potato-ing on my couch.
Please note that our associates work with many presenting issues, some of which are not listed in this biography. Please speak to our intake team at 416-363-4228 for more information.
