My name is Patricia Zielinski and I have over 20 years of experience working as a therapist treating a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, PTSD, eating disorders and addictions. People often tell me that the process of finding a therapist is challenging. I agree, and personally understand that finding the right person to trust to help you is crucial. Your time and financial investment in therapy needs to produce real results that are sustainable.

Are you struggling with relationship or personal issues? I invite you to schedule a free consultation so I can help you discover tools for better communication and emotional health. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all, let me assess what is going on for you and learn about the areas of stress in your life. I use a variety of methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Relaxation/Guided Imagery and Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and families. I also specialize in grief, anxiety, blended families and co-parenting issues as a certified Parenting with Love and Logic Facilitator.

Life events are like pieces of a puzzle that create the picture of where you are today.

I work on relationship issues, life transitions, anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, and codependency. I am a straightforward, caring, intuitively connected therapist that gets to your core issues to help you better understand how you got to where you are, how you can get unstuck, and how to move forward.

Do you find yourself feeling anxious and depressed dealing with all of the pressures of daily life? Do you struggle in your relationships and are looking to create more peaceful interactions? After 27 years working as a psychologist, I have a tremendous amount of compassion and understanding for the struggles and challenges we face to become contributing members of society today. I work with individuals to identify unhealthy thought patterns or behaviors that get in the way of personal fulfillment and develop positive changes. When working with adolescents, I strive to also help parents understand them and develop better connections

Whether you visit face-to-face in the office or in an online consultation with me: there is hope for your/your loved one: Confused or overwhelmed by what you are facing (e.g., relationship distress, dealing with complex physical conditions)? Trying to make sense of what is going on? Affected by betrayal or simply looking for tools to navigate today's complex challenges? I help adults, couples, and adolescents to eliminate problem behaviors or issues related to stress including work, sex, love relationships. I treat sexual pain, internet and pornography addiction, emotional/sexual affairs, trauma, and financial betrayal.

Genuinely caring about my clients is not enough. The statements you find on this website are all from caring therapists. What's important is finding the most well trained and relatable therapist possible for YOU. If this were a life-threatening illness for a loved one, you would do a lot of research and find the most qualified and experienced doctor. You would do whatever you could to afford the very best help available. Don't settle for less when choosing a therapist for yourself. I think you're worth it! May I recommend two important factors to consider when choosing a therapist, whether that's myself or someone else?

I work with clients struggling with a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, difficulty adjusting to life changes and stress, and grief and loss.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am specially trained to work with children, adults, couples, and families.

My clinical approach is systemic in nature, as I view people not as individuals in isolation, but as part of a larger family system. In this way, relationships, communication, and interactions between people are emphasized. Even when working with individuals, this approach is helpful and empowering.

Emotions all over the place with yourself, family or your children? I work with all ages to help my clients as individuals to better understand themselves and build skills to improve functioning in their environment more constructively. I work within their reality to use real life examples that make sense to them and therefore applicable to their lives. Role-play, reenactments, visual aids, art, play therapy constructs, puppets, etc. are examples utilized with younger ages. Different modalities of talk therapy which allow the client to set specific goals of treatment at a pace that feels comfortable are utilized with adults.

Are you an athlete struggling to make a specific time or team? Feeling pressure to perform? Do you perform differently in practice than at competitions?
