Dr. Patricia Frisch

About me

Hello!
I am a pastoral counselor (mental health and spirituality) licensed in South Carolina with seventeen years of practice working with couples. My unique approach to counseling combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (ET), and Positive Psychology.

I earned an MA from La Salle University and a PhD from Loyola University in Maryland, both in pastoral counseling (mental counseling and spirituality). During my PhD studies, I secured an Externship at the Duke University Medical Center.

Unconditional acceptance of my clients provides a safe environment for a couple to move in a positive direction toward improving their quality of life. When reducing anxiety, stress, and depression finding solutions to life's problems becomes easier. Learning communication skills increases relaxation and peace. The couple increases self-confidence and shares their thoughts, new perceptions, and how they may want to change their behaviors.

I look forward to working with both of you!
Patricia F Frisch, M.A., Ph.D., LPC
