Patricia Federico

Expertise: facilitation, coaching, therapeutic arts practices, individuals and groups

Patricia founded Utopia Therapeutics TM, a natural healing arts practice, in 1994 in central Phoenix. Shortly thereafter she created Madre Tierra, a stress relief mist from a vision she received while in Mexico City standing on the Teotihuacán pyramid. Currently her mist is sold in select boutiques throughout Phoenix and online.

As a professional healer she has helped thousands heal emotionally, spiritually and physically. One of her passions is to re-introduce the Latino healing art of the Sobadora, who practices the healing arts of the ancestors that our culture embraced for centuries. The Sobadora is the Latino equivalent of a holistic practitioner.

Patricia has served on various community boards, and is now serving as vice president for the Potential Research Foundation, a nonprofit devoted to the exploration and application of ideas with the potential to benefit mankind/womankind - hence its name. The foundation was formed in 1978 by Attorney Norman Skeens.

Patricia continues to be a true healer in every aspect of her life. She sees this work as a life commitment and seeks to inspire, connect and empower through personal stories, shared wisdom, knowledge and a variety of healing modalities.
