We are all works in progress….. Therapy provides an opportunity for healing and personal growth. I offer a warm, compassionate, and distinctly nonjudgmental therapeutic atmosphere that opens doors to self-discovery. My style of therapy fuels client autonomy and emphasizes both insight and action.

If you are struggling or have the sense that the life you’re living is not quite what you want for yourself, or feel like you have been stuck and living small for too long, don’t wait for things to change on their own. Reach out for support and get help. As your therapist, I can help you make positive changes and transform the way you engage with the world.

The Daring Way™

Patrick is a Certified Daring Way™ therapist. The method was developed to help men, women and adolescents learn how to show up, be seen, and live braver lives. During the process we explore topics such as vulnerability, courage, shame, and worthiness. We examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding us back and we identify the new choices and practices that will move us toward more authentic and wholehearted living. The primary focus is on developing shame resilience skills and developing daily practices that transform the way we live, love, parent, and lead.

Our Practice

Wayfinding (noun): Orienting oneself and choosing a path in often unmarked and sometimes mislabeled environments. It also refers to the traditional Polynesian navigation process of calculating your location at sea. It involves knowing where you’ve been and how you got there based on speed, route, and wind conditions.

Thank you for visiting Wayfinding Counseling. Most likely you are on this page because you’re looking for help and searching for support on your life’s journey. I’m glad you are here. Asking for help takes courage and is a positive step towards living your best life.

While living authentically and charting a new course can be exciting and enlightening, it can also be difficult and downright scary as you recon with where you are in life, get curious about how you got to this point, and decide on where you want to go. The Wayfinding Counseling mission is to help clients grow and thrive in an uncertain world. We help clients identify their strengths and explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to live wholehearted and fully integrated lives.
