Where Busy Professionals Find Help for the Journey

When life feels overwhelming—when anxiety, stress, or transition leaves you feeling stuck—I offer a supportive space to sort through what’s hard and find a clear path forward.

I’m Pat Thorne, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience helping adults navigate emotional challenges with clarity, confidence, and compassion. My approach is solution-focused, strengths-based, and practical—so you can feel better, sooner.

Whether you’re juggling high-pressure demands at work, facing a major life change, or simply feeling emotionally drained, therapy can help you find calm, direction, and a renewed sense of balance.

Areas of Focus

  • Anxiety, worry, and overthinking
  • Work-related stress and burnout
  • Life transitions and role changes
  • Emotional overwhelm or feeling “stuck”
  • Grief, loss, and unresolved sadness
  • Finding meaning and clarity during uncertain times

My Approach

I believe therapy should be effective, efficient, and empowering. My style is:

  • Brief & Solution-Focused – We’ll work toward what’s most important to you
  • Strengths-Based – I help you tap into your resilience, not just your pain
  • Collaborative – Therapy is a conversation, not a lecture
  • Flexible & Accessible – Offered via secure telehealth so you can meet from anywhere

You don’t have to figure it all out alone. I’m here to help you navigate what’s next with more ease and confidence.
