ABOUT

Meet Your Therapist

"Trauma creates change you don’t choose. Healing is about creating change you do choose."

- MICHAEL ROSENTHAL

MEET YOUR THERAPIST

Dr. Patrice Dow-Nelson

Whether faced with navigating developmental milestones, needing a supportive environment to weather an emotional storm, I will listen compassionately and provide a safe and therapeutic space for all clients.

I bring a deep understanding and appreciation of your personal and family concerns and conflicts, informed by my own journey as a woman, mother, and immigrant. I am grounded in a compassionate, insightful and mindful approach to my work using my psychological knowledge and years of experience to help individuals and families better cope with stressors, improve their decision making, and support their overall well-being.
