I saw Patti about 20 years ago with my wife and daughter.

Over the years, I personally witnessed serious boundary and ethical concerns involving both myself and my wife while under Patti’s care. The therapeutic relationship appeared to become increasingly blurred, emotionally unhealthy, and damaging to our family. In my opinion, professional boundaries and objectivity were not maintained in ways that should occur within therapy. I encourage others seeking treatment to carefully consider the importance of ethical standards and clear therapeutic boundaries. Lastly, my direct experien... read more
