OUR THERAPIST
Patricia Garding, MSW
Pre-Licensed Clinician
ABOUT ME | I have lived in the Brainerd Lakes area since 2005 with my husband. I enjoy outdoor activities and spending time with family. Working with children has always been my passion, as I have a background in child development. I have been working in children’s mental health for the past 8 years in the school setting. I believe that connection and compassion are critical for building relationships. I enjoy utilizing music and art to help clients express themselves with openness.
