Getting to know Patricia Do

I firmly believe that we all deserve a safe space to explore our thoughts, feelings, opinions, and values, without judgment. A space to develop a deeper understanding of patterns within our relationships, decisions, and coping strategies. My approach The therapeutic process starts with assessment, which includes a deeper exploration of your history, relationships, careers, emotional expression, and patterns of behavior. As a therapist, I encourage patients to explore and process their thoughts, feelings, and concerns regarding lived experiences, behavioral patterns, core beliefs, and relational roles and expectations. Exploration and processing lead to self-awareness and insight, and assist in the development of personal goals and decision-making. My focus My specialties are in the areas of anxiety, body image, trauma, career stress, identity challenges, relationship distress, and managing the pressures of our roles within our family system. I support patients in increasing self-awareness and insight. Through a strength-based, person-centered approach, I guide patients in building confidence in their goal setting, decision making, core beliefs, and recovering from unhealthy relationships. My communication style I utilize a humorous, non-judgmental, and active listening approach in therapy sessions. Therapy is a vulnerable experience, and I prioritize the development of the therapeutic relationship by building trust, seeking clarity and understanding for the patient's meaning and needs, and focusing sessions on the patient's priorities. My journey to mental healthcare I was drawn toward psychotherapy as a career due to a personal history of childhood challenges, environmental stressors, and socioeconomic disadvantages. Human resilience has always inspired and motivated me to lead, support, and guide others in a strength-based, person-centered manner. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT113180) within the state of California.
