Approaches that guide online sessions

Patricia uses Client-Centered Therapy to start by listening and understanding what matters most to the person. This approach helps clients feel heard and helps shape goals that fit their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, which can be helpful for people struggling with emotional overwhelm or self-destructive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will discuss these methods with clients and choose or combine techniques based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly to see what is working and adjusts the plan together with the client.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time for appointments. Licensed professionals often use these advantages to help people maintain consistent progress while balancing everyday demands.
