About Patricia
Patricia Adams is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 15 years of practical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and life changes. Her approach is straightforward and supportive, aimed at helping people take real steps forward.
Patricia uses therapies that focus on the person and on practical change. She listens first, then helps set clear goals. Sessions often include talking through current problems, learning new ways to handle thoughts and feelings, and practicing small tasks between meetings.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in schools, non-profits, and independent practice settings. That variety shaped a flexible style - able to adapt to different needs and daily routines. Patricia also supports people dealing with addictions, caregiver stress, and issues tied to adoption and abandonment.
In sessions she draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, solution-focused tools, and trauma-informed work. Those methods can help with mood symptoms, coping skills, and processing difficult memories. The aim is practical relief and clearer next steps rather than long, open-ended therapy.
Patricia offers a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules. She conducts sessions in English and works with people located in Florida. Getting started is a simple online process that matches people to therapists and helps schedule the first appointment.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Patricia commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and helping the person find their own solutions; it is useful when someone needs space to process emotions and be heard. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will talk with the client about goals, daily challenges, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress and needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make scheduling more flexible and help fit therapy into busy days.
