About Patricia
Patricia Klepinger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of counseling experience. She aims to make the first steps feel less overwhelming for people seeking help. Patricia speaks plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person she meets.
She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation. She also supports those coping with life changes and parenting challenges.
How Patricia works
Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon or complex theory. Patricia blends several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and build useful skills.
She also uses Client-Centered and Emotionally-Focused methods to create space for feelings and strengthen emotional understanding. In work with trauma and post-traumatic stress, Patricia uses trauma-focused techniques to help people process painful experiences at a pace they can manage. She also offers solution-focused strategies to set short-term goals and track progress between sessions.
Her style is respectful, direct, and compassionate. Patricia partners with people to create a plan that matches their life, goals, and pace. She encourages small, practical steps that add up to real change.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress, and decisions during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical skills to change behavior and mood; it is often used for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers on warm, nonjudgmental listening so people can explore feelings and find their own solutions; it can be useful when self-esteem, attachment, or relationship-related emotions are central.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Patricia works with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on what is actually helping in daily life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people have a full conversation with visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter, focused check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief updates, reflections between sessions, or a way to connect without scheduling a full call. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week and to try different formats until the best fit is found.
