Patricia Safavi, LMSW

Patricia emphasizes the importance of nurturing a space where clients can talk openly so they may deepen their therapeutic experience. She is a strengths-based therapist who often uses validation and reflection to nourish the client’s process. Patricia’s primary focus is attachment-based & emotionally focused therapies to help clients feel empowered in their growth and development.

Patricia is a couples-focused therapist and meets with individuals, teens, and families. She is trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFCT). This approach is often used for couples, individuals, and families to assist with the impact of negative cycles and help reprocess trauma. She explores negative patterns and what emotions may drive behavior. Patricia uses additional forms of psychotherapy with individual clients that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Motivational Interviewing so that the client may build a foundation for behavior change.

Patricia provides a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere. Patricia is warm, calming, and reassuring. She is dedicated to working alongside her clients to create meaningful and lasting change.
