At the conclusion of the session please take an additional 15 - 30 minutes to rest quietly and allow the suggestions to gel.

I decided to stop taking Xanax after being prescribed the max amount for the last 9 years. Due to how long & the strength I was taking I was unsuccessful in quitting cold turkey and so I began to taper down. I started looking for a therapist. I have never been comfortable in therapy, and it was the same. I found Patricia and went to meet with her & see if she could help me through my journey.
A very difficult one, a very private and painful one. I immediately felt able to talk about what I was dealing with. It's taken several months to taper down and I have now been without Xanax or any substitute for almost 2 months. I didn't want to start taking another medication, which is what doctors wanted me to do. Through therapy with Patricia I've been able to free myself from years, decades of anxiety.
You are not rushed as is so common with therapists. Patricia is so warm and caring. Hypnotherapy accesses an entirely different part of you that's not able to be done in talk therapy. I know I would not have had the success I have had without it. I recommend it to everyone I know. Even if you're not dealing with what I was, the effectiveness and permanent change you experience is nothing but life changing.

Patricia has changed my life. She has made me more calm, comfortable, and free to be myself. I am in nursing school and very anxious, unable to sleep, have a hard time taking tests, and not confident in myself. With one session she got to the root of all of my issues and was able to make a recording for me that day that I listen to EVERY night! I fall asleep within 5 minutes (no medication needed!).
I passed all my exams, saved my relationship and got engaged! I only wish I found her sooner! She gave me back all the good pieces of me that were taken in times of abuse and mistreatment. This women is a miracle worker. I pray for her happiness and to help others. If you have any doubts, just go! My boyfriend also sat in the session with me and it was helpful to us both. It was like sitting and taking with an old friend or family. I love her with all my heart.

You will be delighted when you work with the very gifted Patricia Malecki. She is professional, warm, highly trained and can truly help you shift. I was grateful to receive my sense of taste and smell back after just one session. I had an unfortunate accident that left me with a concussion. I worked with her also to relieve the pain that was left in my body from the accident. Thanks again Patricia.

Patricia is remarkably intuitive. She was able to help me understand my issue that I couldn't even articulate in our initial meeting. She listens intently, asks questions that help you understand even while you answer her. You will be made comfortable in her environment and her trust is above reproach. You are unaware of the time as you are never hurried.
The hypnosis exercise was new to me. It's nothing to fear. I have to say my sessions were highly effective. When you are conversing with Patricia, she is completely present. I don't know how else to give a higher endorsement.

Patricia is a very thoughtful, empathetic, and kind therapist. I feel like she listens with purpose to help resolve issues. I have every confidence that she is exactly the right person to see, especially to combine hypnosis and therapy to help me past mental blocks and hurdles. I highly recommend her services.
