Getting to know Patrick Scara

Are you navigating or struggling to make sense of a life-altering experience? I offer therapy grounded in existential and attachment-based theories, helping you find peace, clarity, and direction. Whether it's anxiety, depression, or the complexity of life transitions, my approach is rooted in compassion, insight, and the search for meaning. I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life-altering events. Using an attachment-based and humanistic approach, I provide a unique therapeutic relationship that fosters self-exploration, the search for meaning, building resilience, and improving connection to others. With a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Lutheran University, I understand the challenges you're facing and am here to help. My practice offers a compassionate, safe space for healing and growth, grounded in empathy and authenticity. If you're ready to find clarity, build fulfilling relationships, and embrace meaningful change, I invite you to reach out and start your journey today.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I believe that it is the strength of the relationship between client and therapist that most impacts change. I strive to create a unique therapeutic relationship with each of my clients. I achieve this with my non-assuming, collaborative approach to therapy.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

A typical session with me will look like a real conversation... I have heard stories from friends and patients who have had therapists in the past who just sit and listen and create a lot of awkward silence. ALL of them have said how unhelpful that was for them. BUT it takes two. I expect all of my clients to come prepared to focus and help co-navigate the direction of therapy alongside me.
