Chiquita Patterson (LCMHC)

I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with 11 years of experience in the counseling field. I have been fortunate enough to work in multiple programs such as psychiatric residential facilities, Intensive In Home Services, Outpatient Services for children and adults, and I supervised a program that focused on the employment, education, mental & physical health, of young adults up to the age of 24. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is relatable and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and solution-focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
