About

Patricia Wakefield

Clinical Social Worker

I am a seasoned clinical social worker with experience helping adults and couples. I help clients develop compassion, awareness, and flexibility so they are more likely to thrive.  I seek to provide steadiness and warm support when you feel most challenged and vulnerable.  My clinical training includes community mental health, couple therapy, and medical social work.  As a former research scientist, I bring a spirit of curiosity and knowledge of biology to complement modern understanding of Eastern and Western psychology.  I encourage taking positive action to cultivate wellbeing.
