Getting to know Patricia 'Patty' Gomez-Gillard

Warm greetings! I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over 12 years of experience, holding a Master's in Social Work from California State University, San Bernardino. I have had the privilege of partnering with adult clients to address anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, PTSD/trauma-related diagnoses, and challenges related to stage of life, caregiving, relationships, gender identity, health concerns, employment, and natural disasters. My first goal is to develop a therapeutic rapport with you, helping you feel comfortable in therapy and creating a partnership grounded in a deep understanding of what you want, what your goals might be, and how we can get there. When I'm not providing psychotherapy, you may find me hiking in the redwoods, kayaking, searching for agates on the beach, or attending music concerts. My approach Sometimes clients are unsure what is wrong or may not have a clear plan. My job is to shine a flashlight into those dark places, helping identify what in their lives needs attention so we can establish therapeutic goals together. I utilize interventions from therapeutic modalities including Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, CBT, DBT, Narrative Therapy, Reality Therapy, and Eco-therapy, among others. I provide handouts and homework, but if clients are uncomfortable with homework, participation is not required. My focus I have experience working with a wide variety of mental health concerns and am passionate about making therapy a valuable and life-changing experience. My focus is on adults struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma-related diagnoses, and challenges related to stage of life, cultural issues, being a Veteran, caregiving, relationships, gender identity, health concerns, employment, and natural disasters. My communication style Past clients describe my communication style as non-judgmental and down-to-earth.
