Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Patricia draws on client-centered therapy to place the individual's experience at the center of the work, offering empathetic listening and support while helping clients identify their own goals and values. This approach is useful for building self-awareness, strengthening self-esteem, and navigating life transitions.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and develop more effective, skills-based ways of coping. CBT is often applied for anxiety, depression, panic, and sleep-related concerns because it focuses on actionable tools and measurable progress.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) techniques may be integrated when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship skills are priorities. DBT provides structured skills training that supports managing intense emotions and improving communication in relationships.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences so that therapeutic methods fit the person rather than the person fitting a predetermined model.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for scheduling and allow people to receive support from their own environment. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency and access care in ways that match daily life and obligations.
