Hi, I'm, Patricia! I majored in Mental Health and Trauma and graduated from Cambridge College. Through my experience am a Licenced Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). My desire is to provide support, guidance, and encouragement to others, letting them know that through the pains of life, they can still accomplish their goals. I specialize in working with adults and youth who may be dealing with depression, anxiety, family issues, substance abuse, trauma, or just the everyday challenges of life. I integrate Person-Centered therapy, a Holistic approach, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and other interventions tailored to your needs.

I have a passion for tattoos and animals. I have two standard poodles and I love black cats! I have been through many struggles in my life. I would say the hardest and most rewarding struggle was being a teen parent. It took me a while to accomplish my goals, but I did get it done, and you can too. I am caring, loving, and humorous. I am also straightforward in the most respectful way. There are very few clients who would not do well with my counseling style.

To get the most out of therapy with me a client should come to session as their true self, come with an open-mind and be willing to be honest and vulnerable. I understand that not everyone is ready for this, so I try my best to meet my clients where they are and be considerate of different needs, values, and identities.

Christopher Blanco-Ramos

Hybrid Clinician
In Office - Mon

Hi I'm Chris! I obtained my masters degree for Counseling and School Psychology from Rhode Island College. Counseling has always been a focal point in his life from supporting family members with mental health issues to exploring techniques best suited for self-regulation. My introduction to counseling came way of working at psychiatric hospitals, working closely with adolescents. Empathy is a major trait I holds sacred as one cannot connect with a client if one does not understand the pain the client is going through and ensuring a safe therapeutic relationship is the first step towards healing.

Being an Afro-Latino male allows me to connect with a historically underserviced group and provide a constant reminder that even people of color needs to be privy to mental health and coming from an underprivileged environment we need to heal. Where many of our clients come from there is trauma that is celebrated, by being a representation of a person of color who advocates for mental health we can learn to unpack our trauma and unlearn our negative coping skills. I was always told to be the change that I want to see. Providing therapy to people of all walks of life has helped me to realize that mission in the daily work that I do.

I have a love for music that translates into the therapy sessions. I believe I do best with clients who are open to communicate and who are courageuos enough to let their artistic energy flow inside of sessions with me.

My goal in therapy is to create a safe space for my clients where I can meet them where they are. The ability to conduct therapy in both english and Haitian creole is a plus for the clients I service in case they feel more comfortable using their native language. Being able to focus, but also laugh at some of the issues we face is very important to me. While there is no specific focus on any population I believe that makes it easier for me to work with any client as theres a greater chance of success. I will do the work to get to know the person before the problem. Clients who seem to do well with me are those who do not have to be convinces that there are issues present. If you are ready to do the work, then I am willing to assist in guiding you to better health.
