Patricia Bagnall, LCSW
THERAPIST
Faith-Based
Collaborative
Empowering
As a result of my own healing journey, I realized the importance of having a safe place to explore, heal and grow. I wanted to create that “therapeutic space” for my clients. I view this space as a “mental health playground”. In this playground, therapy isn’t a correction, it’s a collaboration. There is room for silence, sadness, meaning and humor. It’s not about “fixing” yourself, it’s about discovering what makes you whole.

Therapeutic Style + Approach
What three words best capture your therapeutic style?
The three words that best capture my therapeutic style are: Authentic, Faith-based and Straightforward.
Personal Touch + Personality
What hobbies or interests do you have that might surprise people?
I have a passion for refinishing old furniture and giving it new life. Home decor is another interest of mine. I believe that our homes are reflective of our mental state. I refer to it as “Home Decor Therapy”. I think people may be surprised to know that I love to line dance. I even teach a few dances.
WORKING WITH CLIENTS
What is your approach to helping clients set and achieve their goals?
My approach is all about progress, not perfection. I collaborate with my clients to set meaningful goals, take manageable steps and to grow at a pace that is comfortable to them.
Therapy Philosophy
What do you find most rewarding about your work as a therapist?
The most rewarding part of being a therapist is witnessing the transformation of my clients in becoming the best version of themselves.
Personal Well-Being + Self-Care
What’s one self-care tip you often recommend to clients?
One tip I often share with clients is to speak to themselves as they would to someone they deeply care about. The way we speak to ourselves has a powerful impact; it can shape our mindset and emotional well-being. During challenging moments, it’s especially important to be patient, compassionate, and encouraging toward ourselves.
Final Thoughts + Encouragement
If a client could only remember one thing after a session with you, what would you hope it
would be?
“I am not alone in this, and healing is possible”.
