Patricia McGrew

Hey there! I'm Patricia, a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and difficult seasons of life. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply trying to find your way forward, I want you to know that you don't have to figure everything out alone.

I know that reaching out for support can be one of the hardest steps to take, so first, pause and give yourself credit. You're already showing strength by showing up for yourself today! My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and encouraged to grow. I bring compassion, honesty, and a little humor to our conversations because healing can be meaningful without feeling intimidating.

I'm a firm believer that your story matters, and I take the time to understand your experiences, challenges, and what you hope to change. I'll listen with compassion, but I'll also offer honest feedback and encourage you to look at things from new perspectives when it can help you grow.

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and strength-based approaches to help you work through difficult emotions, recognize patterns, and make meaningful changes. My Christian faith is also an important part of who I am, and I'm happy to incorporate prayer, scripture, or spiritual guidance into our sessions if that's something you want. Your personal beliefs and preferences will always be respected.

Our first session is a chance to get comfortable, share what's been weighing on you, and talk about what you'd like to accomplish. There's no pressure to tell your entire story at once or have all the answers before we begin.

You can expect genuine conversations, practical encouragement, and a therapist who will be honest with you while cheering you on. I'll listen without judgment, ask thoughtful questions, and work alongside you to identify meaningful goals and next steps. And because I believe Jesus, therapy, and coffee can do you good, don't be surprised if a little humor finds its way into our sessions, too!
