Brannon Patrick, LCSW

Founder and Clinical Director

I have been in the trenches for years. I thrive in intense situations like complex couples issues, and I love working with men who are struggling with shame associated with past trauma. Below, I have answered a few questions so you can get to know me.

Meet Brannon

A short introduction from Brannon is being filmed.

Why I Became a Therapist

I needed a career with meaning. I love people and I want to watch them grow and find peace. I have special talents and skills of empathy, honesty, and a willingness to say and do the hard things.

What I Bring to This Work

I have been in the trenches for years. I have helped couples through the most complex difficult situations. Nothing fazes me. I show up nonjudgmental with positive regard. I have specific knowledge and skills that make me an expert in helping individuals and couples heal trauma, shame, and relationship wounds.

Who I Work Best With

I enjoy working with self-determined clients who are ready to take direct feedback and apply it. I thrive in intense situations like complex couples issues. I also love working with men who are struggling with shame associated with past trauma.

What a Session With Me Looks Like

I will build safety and trust with you through my professionalism and empathy. I will guide you, reflect back to you things that you may not see. I will challenge you, get curious and help you gain clarity about your best path forward. I will also give you tools to navigate the toughest challenges.

What I Think Creates Change

Safety, Trust, Honesty, and a willingness to face pain and navigate through it. Also, it's what happens outside the therapy office that really makes a difference so giving clear guidance and tools is important.

If You Are Not Sure About Starting

Of course it's scary. Maybe you haven't had a good experience in the past. It's okay to be hesitant. But when you're ready let's get to work so that you don't have to suffer anymore.

Outside of Work

I have 4 beautiful children. My best friend is my dog Willie, and I am a 4 time Family Feud champion

If You Want an Intake Assessment

Some situations may require me to do an intake to help assess the situation and find the best fit for a therapist. If you want an intake assessment I am skilled at conceptualizing a case and making recommendations.
