Raven Patten
Hi, I’m Raven Patten, LCSW. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, supported, and challenged to grow. Together, we’ll explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck while developing realistic strategies that help you move toward the life you want to create.
First session
The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and determine how I can best support you. We’ll discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals, current challenges, and any important life experiences that have shaped you. There is no pressure to share everything at once. My goal is to create a comfortable, supportive environment where you can begin your therapy journey at your own pace.
Strengths
Clients often describe me as warm, genuine, and easy to talk to. I balance empathy with accountability, creating a space where clients feel supported while also being encouraged to grow. My approach is strengths-based and practical, helping clients identify what is already working while developing new tools to navigate challenges. I believe meaningful change happens when insight is paired with action, and I work collaboratively with clients to build both.
Ideal clients
I work best with adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally exhausted despite appearing successful on the outside. I provide a supportive, practical, and collaborative approach that helps clients develop coping skills, increase self-awareness, and build confidence while creating meaningful and sustainable change.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I help clients identify patterns in their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that may be keeping them stuck. Together we develop practical strategies to manage stress, anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges while building confidence and resilience.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Therapy focuses on helping clients identify goals, recognize progress, and develop realistic steps toward meaningful change. Rather than staying stuck in problems, we work together to create practical solutions.
Strength-Based
I believe clients already possess strengths that can support healing and growth. Therapy focuses on identifying those strengths, building self-awareness, and using existing resources to navigate challenges more effectively.
