WHAT CLIENTS SAY:
“Patti scares the shit out of me. AND she is so good”
By the time I found Patti I had tried everything. I had been referred by a bodyworker who could no longer work on me (I would have seizures on the table during cranial sacral sessions). I came to Patti not because I knew it would work. I came because I had run out of options.
“She listened to me talk for 45 minutes and told me all the things we would work on. Things I keep hidden and I am a very private person. And somehow she saw them all.”
That’s the thing about Patti. She sees through you almost instantly. It’s startling. It’s also exactly what you need when you’ve spent years hiding the very things that are keeping you stuck.
We worked together for three years. It was not linear. Breakthroughs followed by contractions. Expansions followed by the long, unglamorous work of integration.
“Every little breakthrough gave me hope. But it was never THE breakthrough. Until it was.”
It wasn’t until I started doing this work that I realized my pain was living in places no chiropractor could reach. The answer wasn’t in more chiropractic, more massage, more any of that. The answer was in my body, my head and my soul - working together.
What shifted wasn’t just emotional. It was physical. I had carried chronic neck pain for decades. I couldn’t turn my head to the right without having panic attacks. And then something shifted. Something I still don’t have words for.
“My jaw doesn’t click anymore. My neck doesn’t hurt. And now, I don’t experience pain. For the first time in three years, I went for a run. Then another. Then another.”
“Whether or not you continue, you will be served”. That’s what Patti told me before we began. She meant every word.
WHAT CHANGED
Decades of chronic pain - gone. Three years of panic attacks, seizures/screaming resolved. Turned her head to the right for the first time in years. Came in out of options. Left with her life back. Amanda is a mother and she did this work not just for herself but for her daughter too.

“I woke up without pain for a full 24 hours. Something had shifted. I was now in dialogue with the pain. I was listening.”
Working with Patti in a long-term container was a deeply supportive and steadying experience. Her presence wasn’t just encouraging. She brought clarity, structure, and devotion to what I was trying to create.
“She helped me get out of the brain spiral and into real action.”
Because of that, I was able to take massive action on something I had been wanting to do for a long time - release my first solo album.
Something had shifted. I was now in dialogue with the pain. I was listening. And that began a completely different kind of transformation - one where I started taking real, aligned action in response to the requests being made by my body. This changed the trajectory of my life. I am no longer undergoing surgery.
“She doesn’t impose anything on you. She helps you turn inward and then supports you in committing to what you find.”

Two years of chronic back pain.
WHAT CHANGED
Released her first solo album. Avoided surgery after two years of debilitating chronic pain. Learned to listen to her body as a guide rather than fight it as an enemy. Life trajectory permanently altered.
Life trajectory changed.
“a steadfast and loving lighthouse keeper, her lamp shining out in a foggy lost coast - full of ruinous crags but also unseen treasures.”
I came to Patti for help with career goal ideation and clarity. I was imagining an empowering but focused experience and chose her because her value-based work ethos echoed my own. Then, right at the start of our container, life blindsided me.
I was an unrecognizable mess. My priorities changed overnight. And somehow, our work together expanded and made room for all of it.
“Grief, guilt, survival, gratitude, and greater purpose. Our work together is almost hard to put into words.”
Patti has a truly unique talent for being a compassionate witness and way-finder to and through some of life’s heaviest - but most transformative - conundrums. She clocked me as a visual thinker right away. She’s right about that too.
“When I think of Patti, I think of a steadfast and loving lighthouse keeper, her lamp shining out in a foggy lost coast, full of ruinous crags but also unseen treasures.”
WHAT ARRIVED ALL AT ONCE
Sudden caregiving and loss of a parent
Loss of home in a natural disaster
Industry-wide job loss due to strikes
WHAT CARRIED HER THROUGH
Rebuilt after simultaneous losses - parent, home, livelihood. Found grief, purpose and gratitude held in same container. Can’t fathom the rebuilding process without Patti’s warm and reassuring wisdom.

Came for career plans. Life had other plans.
"it wasn’t all bippity-boppity-boo... until it was."
I must admit that prior to working with Patti I harbored a certain kind of skeptical judgement where life coaching is concerned. Then in 2022 I arrived at a crossroads for which I had no map. Compass broken. No GPS. I felt small and limited. I decided to work with Patti because I didn't know what else to do.
“Upon meeting Patti I immediately sensed a well of profound understanding and a clarity of thought that I deeply admired. The world needs more people in it like her.”
Patti set up a framework as a guide and how I moved within it turned it into a mirror. My own habits, triggers and self-sabotaging tendencies had nowhere to hide. Working with Patti is how I came to understand that I had the answers all along.
Life didn't need to get better like it was a bad boyfriend who needed therapy. I had to find my way to my best self in my relationship with my life. It was not a linear experience. Not “get answers, make money, make happy". I made some big moves but it wasn't bippity-boppity-boo... until it was.
“My bag-of-fucks-to-give is not only empty, it’s inside out and hanging on the clothes line. Done. I live for me, myself and my bliss and I do so loudly and unapologetically.”
Working with Patti has awoken a sleeping giant in me. It feels great to stand tall.

Arrived at a crossroads.
No map. Compass broken.
WHAT CHANGED
Became, in her own words, audacious. Pursued voice over work, signed with her dream agent, now going on major auditions that take most people years to access. Lives for herself now - loudly and unapologetically.
“She doesn’t use tricks to disarm you. It’s just who she is.”
Working with Patti was an absolute delight. She created a warm, inviting, nonjudgmental space where I felt safe to explore my thoughts, feelings, and needs as I began to reconnect with my creative side. Each session started with grounding exercises that helped me get into the right mindset, setting the tone for meaningful and intentional work.
“Patti helped me discover and embrace my light as a photographer. She gently guided me to claim ownership of that title.”
She challenged me with thoughtful homework assignments that pushed me out of my comfort zone and encouraged growth through new (and sometimes difficult) experiences.
“Soft, genuine, and grounded. That’s her superpower. She makes you feel like you can tell her anything not because of anything she does, but because of everything she is.”
I’d work with Patti again in a heartbeat and will continue to reconnect her to anyone in need of guidance from someone with such a glorious and healing energy.

Reconnecting with creative self.
“When moments of contraction followed periods of expansion, she met me with kindness, grace and compassion."
Working with Patti fundamentally changed my life, in service of and guidance towards the fullest extension of myself.
She reflected back patterns and behaviors I could not see - with language that was clear to understand.
When I fell back into old rhythms, when moments of contraction followed periods of expansion, she met me with kindness, grace and compassion. No judgment. No starting over. Just the next session.
At the end of three-and-a-half years I find myself grounded, present, at ease in access to body, heart and mind - equipped with the tools to listen to my person and choose the life I want to lead.
WHAT CHANGED
Grounded. Present. At ease in body, heart and mind. Equipped with tools that belong to him now - not borrowed, not dependent. The fullest extension of himself, reached through the long, non linear, completely worthwhile work.
