How Patricia Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online

Patricia commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in her work. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try different thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and panic. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on noticing difficult feelings, clarifying values, and taking actions that matter despite uncomfortable emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Patricia works together with each person to decide which methods feel most useful for their goals. That collaborative check-in helps shape what happens in sessions and what homework or practice makes sense between meetings.

Session formats are not specified in the therapists biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days because they remove travel time and allow scheduling during breaks. Online work also makes it simple to try short skill-building exercises between sessions and to use written worksheets or brief check-ins as part of a plan.
