About Patti
Patti Mallow offers a calm, steady presence for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She introduces a pace set by each person and aims to build a trusting rapport before moving into deeper work. Patti's approach is practical and grounded, and she focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns.
Patti is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, in New Mexico. She has 12 years of counseling experience, including work in agencies that assisted survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. That background informs how she listens for safety and pacing when trauma is part of someone's story.
Her sessions often blend client-centered listening with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused ideas when helpful. That means she will listen for each person's goals, then work on clear steps and skills to reduce distress or change unhelpful patterns. She also uses narrative and solution-focused techniques to help people reframe painful memories and identify small, achievable changes.
Patti has provided both individual and group counseling and has supervised other counselors and student interns in agency settings. Her past roles included work at a group foster care ranch and leadership in programs for domestic violence and sexual assault, experiences that shaped her interest in parenting supports, values exploration, and practical skill-building.
She invites people to begin where they are and to move at a pace that feels manageable, focusing on real-life tools for communication, boundaries, and coping.
