About Patricia Wong

My approach is straightforward and dependent upon the presentation of each unique and individual client. I can be active and direct when needed. I am also quiet, reverent and provide solace from a base of real compassion and respect.

I am a solution focused therapist who has been trained on cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing techniques. Together we will identify your symptoms and work on solutions. Life is happening……..it can be better.

I know that ……..Life is happening now and it’s not easy to enjoy the “now” when you are struggling with the past, resulting in feelings of sadness or depression – or struggling thoughts of the future creating feelings of anxiety or fear. Reach out to me, I can help.

Many people have survived a difficult past, which may have contributed to destructive patterns, cycles and behaviors. Neglect, abuse, trauma etc can create emotional confusion and/or emotional pain. Difficulty with work, family relationships or feeling stuck may be causing distress. Reach out to me, I can help. ……………..Life is happening now ! You can create a happier and healthier life
