Getting to know Pat Bruno

Hi there, I'm Pat! Hello, my name is Patti Bruno, and I am an LCSW. I love to train my clients with life skills that they can apply through self-determination to improve their daily living. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities and specialize in Trauma, OCD, Anxiety, and Depression. My approach I use the strengths-based approach, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy as some of the commonly used modalities within my practice. My focus I have worked with a variety of populations throughout my career, consistently supporting trauma victims (PTSD), substance abuse, OCD, anxiety, relationship issues, and teenager/parent conflict. My communication style I take pride in providing an inviting atmosphere for my clients-one that is bias-free, non-judgmental, down-to-earth, and a come-as-you-are therapeutic environment. Whether you meet with me in person or via teletherapy, you will leave feeling empowered. I believe transparency is important to building a solid client/therapist rapport. My journey to mental healthcare My personal journey to becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker began in my mid-40s. After a lifetime of trauma and mandated therapy without results, I decided to be part of the solution. I wanted to help people and be that person who sits in the dark with someone until they reach the light at the end of the tunnel! So, I went to college in my mid-forties and earned my Master's in Social Work from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock to become an LCSW. My goals for you Goal setting-whether small or big-is all important. Goals give us purpose. Setting goals eliminates chaos and confusion. Creating objectives for each goal provides the steps we must take to achieve them. Achieving our goals builds our self-worth! My first session with you During your first session, you will learn about informed consent, practice policies, and communication options so you can stay in touch with me.
