Patricia Erskine, B.S.N., M.A., LMHC

I have openings for new clients for Tele-therapy via a secure link and am available to support you during these uncertain times.

Are you in the midst of a difficult or confusing transition?

The journey towards wholeness often begins during personal crisis, upheaval or change.

During these moments, it can feel as though there is no going back, yet the road forward has not come into view.

Life's challenges carry within themselves the invitation to look at life in new ways and find deeper satisfaction and meaning.

And at times like this, it can be beneficial to work with a professional therapist.

Working together, to look at what is being revealed in suffering, you can discover a renewed sense of significance in life and a profound sense of healing, growth, and well being. 

 

 

 

Whether you find yourself in transition because of:

•   career issues

•   marriage or relationship difficulties 

•   divorce 

•   depression

•   anxiety

•   grief and loss 

•   cross-cultural issues

•   or other significant life events including simply feeling stuck

we can work together to become aware of the heart of the suffering and find a new way forward. 

As a dual citizen, I also have a firsthand understanding of expatriation, repatriation, culture shock, relocation, and cross-cultural issues, and I speak fluent French.

Si vous le désirez, nos consultations peuvent se dérouler en français.

I also serve expatriate French and English speaking clients from around the world via secure video.

I invite you to call, text, or email me with any questions about working together and look forward to hearing from you!
