The Perspectives Anew Story


Perspectives Anew Therapy, LLC or PAT, is the result of a dream that began in my junior year of high school.

I’d taken a psychology class and was fascinated by learning how the mind works. I decided then that I would study psychology, become a therapist and open my own business.

At that time, I didn't know how it would happen, when it would happen, or what I would name my practice. I only knew that I wanted to help people and that one day I would.

Over 25 years, much hard work and many life transitions later, it's here! Perspectives Anew Therapy, LLC is dedicated to my rock and the woman who inspired me to always be the very best version of me, my mom, Pat.

I miss you mom and I hope I've made you proud.
