What is Therapy/Coaching Like?

Message from Dr. Patt…

If you are tired of travelling in circles and seek a new perspective and approach for breaking out of your unhealthy or unproductive  rut, it will be my privilege to steer you to your success.  And if you have tried coaching or therapy, maybe you are worn out with coaches and therapists who sit there, smiling with bobblehead necks and asking an occasional, "And…. how does that make you feel?"

I do not work that way. I listen carefully to you. Then, we will have a two-way conversation.  And, while I will never know as much as you do about you, I will soon learn about you from a different angle---and share something I observe that you may not consciously realize. Or I will confirm what you already thought.

I will not tell you what you should do. How can anyone else REALLY know that? I will offer you possibilities to consider and  pose questions for you to answer about your life.

My clients appreciate my wisdom, humor, and compassion. While I am respectful,  I also use humor and snark in sessions to express ideas when appropriate. Expect to smile, laugh, or  maybe even "roll your eyes and groan-with-a-grin" over some of my remarks.
