Femina Patel

Hi! I'm Femina, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who blends compassion with clarity and practicality. I notice patterns in how people think, communicate, and relate to themselves and others, and I help clients understand how these patterns show up in their daily life. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be honest while also being gently challenged. Clients often tell me they appreciate how I help them build emotional resilience, communicate effectively, set boundaries, and make meaningful changes that last. My focus is not just on coping, but on growth that feels real and empowering.

My treatment approach is based upon what each individual client needs and is influenced by: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Existentialism, Family Systems, Gestalt, Humanistic, Mindfulness-Based (MBCT), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative, Person-Centered ,Play Therapy, Positive Psychology, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Strength-Based, Trauma-Focused CBT, etc.

Generally in session, you can expect to experience mindfulness, increased self-awareness, and practical solution-focused discussion, with a touch of humor(when appropriate). We’ll focus on understanding your goals, challenges, and what brought you to therapy. I’ll listen closely, ask questions to clarify patterns and priorities, and collaborate with you to outline a plan for moving forward. This session is your opportunity to be honest, explore your concerns, and see if my style feels like a good fit for your needs. I can help you to find meaning even during the most challenging times. You will find the conversation is comfortable and easy. I aim to be a pillar of support on your journey.
