Her work often centers on everyday struggles such as communication problems, caregiver stress, and feeling isolated. She helps people cope with transitions like midlife shifts, postpartum changes, and career decisions. Practical strategies and hands-on exercises are common in sessions.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and feeling overwhelmed. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches tools to change patterns that keep problems going. It is often used for panic, social anxiety, and low mood.Patricia treats approach selection as a team effort. She listens to what matters most, tries methods that fit a person's goals, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. The process is collaborative - clients and the therapist decide together which techniques feel most helpful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet when life is busy. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work for brief updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into work, parenting, or caregiving schedules while still using the same therapeutic approaches and tools.
