Approaches and Online Care with Patricia Green-Metz

Patricia Green-Metz draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to support clients in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people draw on their own strengths to find direction and meaning; it is useful for building self-esteem and exploring personal values. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical strategies and skill-building, and it is often applied to anxiety, depression, and stress management. DBT emphasizes skills for regulating emotions, tolerating distress, and improving relationships, which can be especially helpful for intense emotional reactions and patterns that affect daily functioning.

Patricia approaches these methods collaboratively - she works with each client to determine which approach or combination of approaches best fits the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows adjustments over time as goals evolve and progress is made.

Online therapy with Patricia is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for varied schedules and circumstances. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations, to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and to choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
