About Patricia
Patricia Greer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with twenty years of experience supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, or major life changes. She works in North Carolina and focuses on practical help that people can use day to day. Patricia aims to make reaching out feel less daunting and more like a step toward clearer choices.
She uses straightforward, respectful conversation to identify what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on building coping skills, improving communication, and creating routines that help with sleep, mood, and cravings. Patricia helps people sort through grief, trauma, and the ups and downs of relationships with calm guidance. Her work combines client-centered listening with approaches that teach concrete tools for changing unhelpful patterns.
That can include strategies to manage anxious thoughts, skills for regulating intense emotions, and ways to strengthen relationships. People who come to her often want useful skills as well as someone who listens without judgment. Patricia has long experience supporting people with co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns.
She also addresses family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment wounds, codependency, and problems that follow divorce or separation. Her aim is to help each person find a clearer sense of self and more confident ways to move forward. She invites people to work together on practical steps toward better days.
Patricia helps clients build assertiveness, healthier boundaries, and routines that support recovery and emotional balance.
Combining practical methods with online convenience
Patricia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide online work. CBT helps people spot and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and build step-by-step behavior changes for anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. DBT offers emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that are useful for strong mood swings, anger, and urges tied to addiction.She also uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and building a trusting, respectful relationship. Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative; the therapist and client will discuss goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan together until it fits the person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people work face to face when they want more interaction. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or people who prefer writing to speaking.
These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, school, or caregiving and to keep steady momentum with skill practice between meetings.
