About me
I have been happily married for 38 years, to the same person! But it all hasn't been easy.
There will always be struggles, even during the "honeymoon stage", but learning how to effectively communicate, showing empathy and understanding while getting your needs met, and remaining unique as an individual is priceless during our life journey.
I identify and focus on maladaptive coping skills and gear therapy toward the development of new healthy and effective ways of dealing together with life issues.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Patricia Marchman. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Patricia put us at ease from the very moment we matched. My husband has always approached therapy with caution, but is always encouraged before a session!
Patricia has been so helpful to myself and my husband. I'm learning tools to help communicate better. She's wonderful and kind
My partner and I were seeking some serious help with problem solving in our relationship and it’s been life changing. We’ve been seeing Patricia for about a year now and I must say she’s helped us in so many ways. Our relationship has improved so much, we’ve learned better communication and connection. Patricia has gone above and beyond when we needed her, she’s been so flexible with her schedule and is always reaching out to us to check in. She’s become someone so special in our lives she’s more than just our therapist she’s truly a friend we can talk to about absolutely anything. Patricia is definitely someone I would recommend when you’re in need of couples therapy or even individual therapy!
We have had a few sessions only but so far she has been very helpful and is on my level helping me understand and give me the tools I need to better myself
She has been amazing! I feel heard and understood. She has been a powerful tool for me and my wife.
Patricia has been great! She is understanding and knowledgeable.
Patricia is skilled at observing and getting to know and understand you to provide quality advice.
I have had several negative experiences with therapy and joined Regain with some hesitation. However, Pat has been great. She understands my concerns. She is not condescending, she is straightforward, and she is honest. I have never ended therapy sessions whit positive feelings until now. This has been a great experience.
Great
Patricia helped me to see that my communication is a root cause of some of the challenges I face not only in my marriage but in life. Her method to teach us how to improve communication definitely has already had an impact.
I believe Patricia is of great value to my relationship development and I love the worksheets that are presented.
