About Patrice

She also supports parenting challenges, career transitions, and coping with life changes. Patrice is an LPC with 20 years of clinical experience and works from Alabama.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She prioritizes building trust and teaming with each person to identify strengths.
How Patrice works
Patrice uses conversations and simple in-session exercises to spot negative thinking patterns and find better ways of responding to stress and triggers. Patrice blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. That combination helps people reframe distorted thoughts, practice new behaviors, and calm intense feelings.
She often recommends short exercises, readings, and real-world experiments between sessions. Her background includes two decades of supporting adults through major life changes such as divorce, abandonment, and career shifts. She draws on lived experience as well as clinical work to encourage self-compassion and clearer decision making.
Patrice focuses on practical steps that people can try right away. Sessions aim to move someone from feeling stuck to noticing small, steady progress. Patrice helps clients name unhelpful patterns, locate inner resources, and replace rigid beliefs with workable plans.
She invites a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide the work.

How Patrice’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects feelings, and helps people notice their own strengths and choices. This approach is useful for emotional pain, low self-esteem, grief, and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions involve identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small experiments to change behavior. CBT helps with anxiety, panic, mood problems, and repetitive negative thinking.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build calm. These techniques can support people dealing with stress, anger, or sleep difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patrice will collaborate with each person to match methods to goals, needs, and preferences. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress occurs.
Online sessions offer different ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when a camera isn’t convenient, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. These options make scheduling easier, fit work and family routines, and let people use the format that feels most comfortable while they try new skills.
