About Patricia

Patricia Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Kentucky with ten years of experience. She has supported people with depression, anxiety, trauma, and many life stressors. Her background includes work with grief and hospice and end-of-life counseling concerns. She aims to make the first step feel manageable and respectful.

Her style is warm and interactive. She listens without judgment and keeps conversations practical. She focuses on what is happening now and what can change next.

Patricia blends several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses client-centered skills to build trust and psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat. She also brings cognitive behavioral techniques to help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps. She helps people cope with anxiety, grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, addiction concerns, ADHD, and trauma-related symptoms. Patricia also addresses issues like attachment, abandonment, body image, and forgiveness.

In meetings she tailors the pace and language to the person in front of her. She works with the client to set realistic goals and checks progress along the way. The aim is to leave each session with something useful to try between meetings.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship by listening carefully and following the client's lead; it helps people who need empathy and space to sort through feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect behavior and mood and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method some therapists use to help process traumatic memories through guided attention and structured steps; it can be useful when trauma symptoms are a core concern.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan as needed. That collaborative process helps find what actually helps the person feel and function better.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people appreciate online work because it can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and fit into a busy day. Online sessions can also allow for shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed and can make it simpler to continue care across life changes.
