Getting to know Patricia L Morin

My name is Patricia (Pat) L. Morin, MA, LCSW, and I'm a licensed psychotherapist with a master's in both Counseling Psychology (MA) and Clinical Social Work (LCSW-R, NY-LCSW, CA) with over thirty years of experience. As an individual practitioner, I specialize in depression and anxiety in adults over forty years of age. Elders are most welcome, especially with ending jobs and moving into retirement. During my career, my clients ranged from drug-involved adolescents to adult schizophrenics. I was also a clinical director of a 150-client workshop for dual-diagnosed schizophrenic and mentally challenged adults. Working for twelve years in community service centers, I treated a broad range of psychological disorders. My approach As an individual practitioner, I specialize in depression and anxiety in adults over forty years of age. My style is casual, but therapy is directive using goals, past experiences, and dream analysis (Gestalt). Most of my clients feel improvement within a month. I do not believe in letting clients sit and stew or build anxiety. I will ask questions to help you feel comfortable sharing. My focus I have no ideal client. I deal with depression and anxiety that stems from so many factors--family, friends, work, body image, ungrounded thoughts, grief, loss, religion (especially those abused by religious personnel), spirituality, loss of a pet (four-legged, two-clawed, and slithering). Gee, there are many roads to those diagnoses. My communication style My style is casual. Pretty much like what you are reading now. I listen intently and ask lots of questions to clarify how you feel and what you are thinking when you have certain negative emotions. How does your body respond? Do your thoughts and feelings work with your behavior? I do share worksheets every once in a while and discuss objectives for the next session. Might be the same goal, but a different aspect of it.
