Patricia J. Mills, PhD

History

I'm a former University Professor, now Professor Emerita, and a certified Philosophical Counselor. My certification is from the American Philosophical Practitioners Association (APPA). I am also a published author and in 2018 was given a Lifetime Achievement Award from Marquis Who's Who. For my practice I maintain membership in the American Counseling Association.

Specialties

My specialty is Philosophical Counseling in which I combine the careful thinking of a philosopher with the compassion and empathy of the counseling relationship. In counseling sessions we address your concern - whether it is a career choice, an ethical dilemma, a relationship issue, writer's block, general unhappiness, or anything else - using the reasoning tools developed by both Western and Eastern philosophers. The objective is to empower you, through self-awareness, to think and live with confidence and courage.
