Hello! I am Patt Pickett, SEICC, LMFT, MEd, PhD and co-owner of St. Louis Emotional Intelligence Center LLC- HireCoach® (STLEIC).
Are you searching to team up with a professional provider for support and help to take your personal/business life and relationships up-to-the-next-level? Do you have goals to reach? Need to set goals? Or are you in emotional turmoil or in a mental downturn that you cannot shake? Maybe, you are stuck in one of those life "ruts”? Want an escape plan? I will effectively guide and teach you the tips, tools, and strategies to achieve your goals and live your best life.
At a personal level, here is what you can expect from me. Clients value the unique combination of my sensitivity and my directness because I do not “beat”. I do not “beat down” clients. I do not “beat around” bushes. Your time is valuable.
Teaming up with me brings to you my out-of-the-box wisdom, a can-do attitude, and snappy wit. Two of my favorite and typical comments from clients are (paraphrased), ‘I never thought about it that way before’ and ‘I learned more in under an hour with you than I did from others in several meetings.’
When you consult with me, you also get the concrete benefits of the ideal combination of the highest academic education, specialty professional training/licensure and credentials with decades of professional experience (including over 10,000 conversations with individuals/ couples).
In addition to being a state licensed mental health therapist and certified teacher, I am certified in social and emotional intelligence. While you cannot raise your IQ, you CAN increase your emotional intelligence (EQ). Helping people build excellent relationships supported by emotional intelligence (EQ) is my passion and expert focus. SO what is EQ? “Simply put, EQ is first, becoming fully aware of your emotions, and then naming, managing, and consciously expressing your emotions appropriately to build an awesome life and personal/business relationships.” (Patt H. Pickett, SEICC, LMFT, MEd, PhD, 2019)
Actively apply your EQ to achieve your goals by overcome limiting emotions, behaviors, and beliefs that keep you stuck and impair quality relationships. Move forward!
Because I am state licensed, I am legally qualified and ethically approved to deliver the full spectrum of expert mental health/wellness services you want. When it comes achieving success with your specific goals, consider whether you want to narrow your service options by working with a non-licensed person, even a subject-matter-expert (SME).
There are legal and ethical rules which strictly limit services provided by non-licensed providers who identify as coaches, consultants, guides, SMEs, or similar titles. Licensing laws prohibit non-licensed persons from providing services addressing emotional and mental health needs because they are not professionally or legally qualified to do so. (For details, see state statutes on professional mental health licensing.) Your mental health and wellness are precious and deserve the best care and support.
STLEIC professional services include: action-oriented consultation – my reputation is that I am “easy to talk-to” | coaching | counseling | online EQ testing | online marriage check-up | speaking presentations and in my role as a state certified teacher--- business training | couples’ classes | marriage groups | emotional intelligence workshops.
Want self-help resources? Coming soon: a series of easy-read, no jargon books and resources written with humor and couples' stories, based on my award-winning book, The Marriage Whisperer, Tips to Improve Your Relationship Overnight and a related card game deck, The Marriage Whisperer Challenge, which has a relationship tip on each card.
We developed our business, St. Louis Emotional Intelligence Center LLC - HireCoach®(STLEIC), because we saw a need to move professional quality mental health/wellness services out of typically stigmatized therapy offices with the “medical feel” and into the comfortable online video setting. (Limited in-person appointments available in our STL south county office.)
We bring the full spectrum of mental health/wellness needs including enrichment and education into our more relaxed setting, ideal for maximum emotional healing as well as for learning and change.
Whether your mental health/wellness needs are to achieve emotional healing, that is, to intervene in or prevent an emotional crisis/downturn in your life or you have goals for improvement and learning to build greater life satisfaction and personal happiness, Dr. Patt will help you to move forward toward success.
