Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Patty draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on helping people clarify what matters most to them and take action toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how those patterns affect current connections, which is helpful for relationship struggles and trauma-related attachment issues. CBT helps people identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to improve mood and functioning, often used for depression and anxiety.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Patty approaches that decision collaboratively. She works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and tailors techniques accordingly so therapy fits each person’s life and priorities.
Online therapy with Patty is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to access support from home or on the go. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care, while allowing licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent, goal-oriented support.
