About Tricia
Tricia Walsh is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and medical-related challenges. She practices in Florida and brings a straightforward, compassionate manner to sessions. Tricia emphasizes the working relationship as the main vehicle for change and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.
Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented. She listens first, then helps people set short-term goals and simple strategies to meet them.
How Tricia works
Conversations often include skills for handling intense emotions, ways to rethink unhelpful thoughts, and exercises to increase meaningful action. Sessions are offered in plain language so people can use what they learn right away. Tricia draws on several approaches to match each person's needs, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and emotionally-focused work that looks at connection and feeling.
She also uses client-centered principles that center the person's lived experience. Together these methods support people facing grief, relationship struggles, addiction concerns, chronic illness, and identity-related stress. People who prefer clear steps and a warm, steady presence tend to find her helpful.
She supports those coping with life changes, caregiving strain, workplace stress, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. Tricia aims to make therapy practical and relevant to daily life. To begin, she asks people to identify one or two reachable goals and then builds from there.
The focus stays on what will make life more manageable and more meaningful for each person.

Approaches in online sessions and how they help
Tricia commonly combines acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, and emotionally-focused work in online therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going, a practical approach for depression, anxiety, and coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at feelings and connection, which can help people understand and shift patterns around intimacy and relationship-related distress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your goals, preferences, and daily challenges and suggest methods that fit. Together you will try techniques, see what helps, and adjust the plan so it stays relevant to your needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of formats: video calls for more in-depth work, phone sessions when bandwidth or scheduling is a concern, and live chat or text-based messaging for shorter check-ins or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving routines, or limited travel, while still using the same therapeutic approaches a licensed professional would use in person.
