“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
— Viktor Frankl

He has a tattoo sleeve on his right arm and is smiling at the camera. A white picket fence and some houses are in the background.

Who is Balance and Thrive Mental Health?

Patrick Santilli, LPCC, LHMC, NB-HWC (Owner and Clinician).


licensed therapist, board certified health and wellness coach

Helping adults make sense of what's feeling off or disconnected; anxiety, ADHD, OCD, autism, life transitions, parenting, or simply being stuck in old patterns. I always strive to be inquisitive, collaborative, and logical in our work. Together, we will make sense of all of the noise and work toward something that feels more like your best self.

Welcome! I’m Patrick Santilli, a licensed therapist and behavior coach with over 13 years of experience helping adults navigate challenges related to ADHD, OCD, autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, relationships, career, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and inquisitive, aiming to understand your experiences through your perspective. I worked in Information Technology for nearly 10 years while I was in college before starting my focus on mental health. My affinity for technology has helped so much in a practical sense with telehealth work. I have always looked at life in an analytical or "troubleshooting" way, and my therapy approach mirrors that as well.

I utilize Existential Therapy principles, focusing on meaning-making and personal responsibility. My background in Information Technology and Philosophy informs a structured, analytical approach to problem-solving, which complements the therapeutic process. I believe a mix of self identification and action bring lasting change.

Now serving residents in Ohio, Florida, and Washington. Insurance accepted as well as private pay. See our payments page for more information.
