Getting to know Patricia Chan

Hi there, I'm Patricia! I’m a clinical psychologist and licensed social worker with over 20 years of experience providing evidence-based counseling, psychotherapy, and psychological assessments across diverse populations. As the founder of LiveWell Therapy, I specialize in individual, couples, family therapy, groups, forensic evaluations, and clinical supervision for therapists, integrating behavioral health with adjunctive natural approaches to support whole-person care. My clinical practice is rooted in a clinical health psychology, biopsychosocial model, emphasizing comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, collaborative treatment planning, and culturally responsive clinical interventions to promote long-term mental health and functional wellness. My approach My approach to psychological care is rooted in a clinical health psychology, biopsychosocial, and integrative framework, combining evidence-based practices with holistic interventions to support the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of each client. I begin with a comprehensive assessment that includes diagnostic interviews, clinical tools, and collateral input to develop an accurate understanding of the client’s symptoms, history, strengths, and needs. From there, an agreed-upon clinical treatment will be recommended. Treatment is individualized and may incorporate a range of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, mindfulness-based interventions, psychodynamic therapy, and family systems work. I also integrate nutritional and lifestyle guidance, when appropriate, to address underlying contributors to psychological distress, such as inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, or hormonal imbalances. I emphasize collaboration, cultural responsiveness, and psychoeducation, empowering clients to take an active role in their healing process.
