Patricia Carruth

Patricia Carruth, MSW, is a licensed psychologist with over 25 years of clinical experience dedicated to helping adults and elders navigate their personal journeys. She skillfully supports her clients in identifying and meeting their goals, enabling them to overcome obstacles and make meaningful changes. Known for her respectful, empathic, and supportive therapeutic relationships, Patricia creates a healing space that responds to each individual's unique needs. It is her honor to accompany clients through both turmoil and triumph as they resolve past traumas and cultivate new skills for integrated and lasting change. At the heart of her approach, Patricia believes psychotherapy is an exploration of one's past to define future aspirations. She emphasizes that the way individuals process their traumatic experiences can hold greater significance than the events themselves. Patricia's areas of expertise encompass trauma, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, divorce, and parenting. Furthermore, she specializes in providing parent consultations and coaching, particularly for parents of children exhibiting challenging behaviors. Patricia champions the concept of discipline as guidance rather than punishment, offering valuable support to help parents understand and respond to emotional undercurrents of misbehavior, all while fostering confident and drama-free discipline.
