Approaches Patricia Uses in Online Therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening with empathy and treating the client as the authority on their own experience. This approach helps people who need support exploring emotions, building self-trust, and finding their own solutions for stress, grief, or life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, mood regulation, and improving concentration by teaching practical skills for coping and problem solving.

Trauma-focused therapy aims to help process painful events and reduce their ongoing influence on daily life. It can be useful for symptoms related to post-traumatic stress, complicated grief, and other reactions that follow distressing experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Patricia works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors the work over time so strategies evolve as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow clients to schedule sessions around work, family, and travel, and they make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change. Licensed professionals, including therapists like Patricia, can adapt interventions across these formats to support meaningful progress.
