About Patricia
Patricia Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of experience helping people navigate hard moments. She practices in Kentucky and has worked with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and many relationship concerns. She keeps sessions warm and interactive.
Patricia aims to treat people with respect and compassion and avoids stigmatizing labels. She listens first, then helps shape a plan that fits each person's life and goals. Her work draws on several approaches.
How Patricia works
She uses client-centered methods to follow the person's lead and build strength. Cognitive behavioral techniques help identify unhelpful thoughts and try small, doable changes. Patricia also incorporates narrative and psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that developed over time and how early relationships still influence current feelings.
For trauma that keeps surfacing, she includes EMDR as one of the tools she offers. Sessions are meant to feel practical and down-to-earth. Conversations focus on what is most troubling now and on skills that can reduce distress between sessions.
The therapist and the person set goals together and adjust the plan as needed. People often come to address parenting strain, grief, self-esteem issues, or major life changes. Patricia works with a broad range of concerns including ADHD, bipolar mood struggles, compassion fatigue, and challenges linked to adoption, attachment, and family of origin issues.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on following the client's lead, offering empathy, and helping people identify their own strengths and goals; it can help with low mood, anxiety, parenting challenges, and self-esteem. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches simple skills to test new ways of thinking and acting; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together they will choose which methods to try first. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust the plan if something is not helping.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so people can pick what fits their routine. Video provides face-to-face interaction, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities and help maintain continuity when life gets busy.
