Patrick B. McGinnis, PhD, LMHC

 Florida Licensed Psychotherapist

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Sex Therapist, Relationship Counselor, and Addictions Professional practicing in Vero Beach, Florida. In addition to my academic studies in psychology, human development & behavior, and counseling theories and practices, I have received specialized training in Imago Relationship Therapy, Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Gestalt, Cognitive Behavioral, Humanistic, and Transpersonal therapies.

In addition to basic mental health issues, I specialize in relationship/intimacy, addictions, sexual issues (including many years working with sex addicts and their partners), family of origin issues, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. A therapy Group for sex addicts is now available.

My life purpose includes assisting others to find more satisfaction in their lives. Sometimes this journey involves becoming self-actualized (discovering and becoming who they are authentically are born to be). This process includes conscious awareness of behavior, recognizing and developing inherent gifts, and finding and living one's higher purpose. This is partially facilitated through addressing the self-limiting beliefs, traumas, relationship issues, and habitual patterns that have developed during a person’s life.

I also conduct Psychosexual Assessments using the Polygraph and other relevant testing. I am certified in Clinical Polygraph Sex Offender Testing (pre & post conviction). Polygraph testing is available for other issues as needed (for example, it is often useful in re-establishing trust in betrayed relationships).

New clients may wish to complete the required Forms prior to arriving at the office for the first appointment. Otherwise plan on arriving early to complete them in the office before your session.
 

Hours are by appointment only - Saturday appointment times are available.
