Patricia Valencia Mental Health Counseling, PLLC

“Patricia's care and focus for her clients, especially those who are moving through their 40's and 50's, is profound and deeply intentional. Her capacity to be with clients dealing with shame, burnout, and breaking complex patterns around trauma, family, and navigating the issues of being a caregiver to aging parents is a unique skill she excels at. I feel that her heartfelt approach to the work she gives to the people who come to her is very special, and I have found her approach full of empathy and curiosity. You are in good hands with Patricia, and know you will be fully supported here.”

“As a fellow licensed therapist, I highly recommend Patricia. Her focus on Gen X adults and caregivers, the ones who've been quietly holding everything together for decades while their own needs went unmet, is not just a niche, it's a calling. Clinically, she brings a grounded, compassionate, and trauma-informed perspective. She meets people where they are. I've seen colleagues talk about burnout and anxiety in ways that feel generic. Her work doesn't. It feels real, specific, and helpful.”

“Patricia is a truly dedicated therapist who genuinely cares about her clients' wellbeing. Having witnessed her work, I've seen how committed she is to helping people grow and improve their lives. She provides practical tools and creates a safe, welcoming environment where clients feel supported. Her warmth and decade of experience shine through in her thoughtful approach to therapy. Patricia has a special gift for helping people set healthy boundaries and navigate personal and professional challenges. she also has great experience in helping people work through anxiety, burnout, and trauma. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate therapist who makes a real difference!”

“Patricia is a great therapist. I love her authenticity, warmth, and humor. She is super easy to open up to. I've loved connecting with her over 80s and 90s pop culture (like our shared love for Prince!). She gets what it's like to be seen as the "strong one" or go-to person for everyone else. It's exhausting to be caring for everyone else and putting yourself last on the list of priorities. Whether you've been that person since childhood because of an alcohol or emotionally immature parent, or you became the informal therapist for your friends and family over time, Patricia is for you. When you're feeling burnout but everyone else sees you as the "superhero" who "made it," give Patricia a call. You won't regret it!”
