Colleen Brigid Fitzpatrick, LCSW, CH

Are you concerned with your child's ability to express emotions?Are you frustrated with relationships in your life? All thoughts, feelings and behaviors can be changed. Therapy gives you the chance to explore your concerns, improving many areas of your life, such as friendships, work and intimacy. My approach integrates the mind, body and spirit.

Do you want to learn how to have a better life? I pride myself on being an interactive therapist. This means that I not only actively listen, but I provide feedback and thought provoking questions. Gaining insight into your thoughts and behaviors can assist you in developing more of the life your want! I have a very creative flair due to my extensive training in art and music. I integrate that aspect into my treatment, making it much different than traditional therapy.

I counsel and teach children and adults in building skills to manage stress. I have years of experience of successfully treating depression, anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, behavioral issues in children, autism spectrum disorders, and so much more.

I believe the "right fit" is essential if you want to benefit from therapy. Some key elements would be experience in the area of your specific issue, ability to communicate well and a match in personality style. The combination of education, experience and genuine caring can assist you in having the desired outcome you want. Therapy is not just about symptom reduction, but learning the root of your issue and building skills to help you manage your life better.
