Patrick’s background includes work in clinical, educational, and correctional settings where he led individual counseling, workshops, and group programs.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed actions toward those values, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve coping with stress and strong emotions.Finding the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and past experiences and then recommend techniques from ACT, CBT, or mindfulness as a team decision. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, so the plan is reviewed and adjusted collaboratively.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls work well for full sessions where visual cues matter. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat or text messaging can support short updates, coaching-style contact, or ongoing encouragement between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or busy family routines.
