There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.” — John Green I have worked in the field of social work for over ten years, driven by a passion that began while supporting adolescents in a clinical day school setting. That early experience solidified my commitment to furthering my education and pursuing a career in social work. Throughout my career, I have gained experience across a variety of settings, including schools, medical facilities, child welfare, outpatient care, and crisis services.

Hello, and welcome. My name is Patricia Mathison, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) dedicated to supporting individuals in navigating life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and practical tools for growth.
I bring a strong professional background in mental health counseling, with experience working with diverse populations. My work has allowed me to support clients through concerns such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and stress-related challenges.
I earned my Master’s in Counseling and Psychology from Lesley University, where I received comprehensive training in evidence-based therapeutic approaches. I continue to stay current in the field through ongoing professional development and training.
