Background and approach
Patricia draws on several proven methods, including cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense emotions. She also uses client-centered and attachment-based ideas to build trust and understanding in the therapy relationship. In practical terms, Patricia focuses on tools that can be used between sessions.
That may include coping strategies for anxiety, steps to improve sleep and eating patterns, or communication skills for difficult conversations. She works with issues like boundaries, motivation, codependency, and compassion fatigue in clear, actionable ways. People who choose her work with a licensed professional who values sensitivity and respect.
She aims to empower clients to make steady changes, offering guidance while encouraging their own strengths and choices.
Approaches that shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports taking actions that match personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build more supported ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Patricia will talk with each person about their goals, questions, and preferences, then recommend techniques from these approaches that fit the situation. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skills practice, phone can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat work well for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make scheduling easier and let people get care from different locations while keeping a steady routine of support.
