Background and approach
First responders and high-achieving professionals are among the groups she has experience supporting through crisis and chronic stress. Her background includes a Bachelor of Arts in General Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Asheville and a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University.
She became licensed as an LMFT in 2003 and has provided clinical care across healthcare, nonprofit, and educational settings. Tricia brings a blend of evidence-informed methods to sessions, including cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-focused work, and acceptance-based practices. She favors an individualized plan that fits each person's goals and daily life.
Sessions focus on practical skills, emotion-focused conversation, and building stronger connections in close relationships. She has experience offering dementia-related training and crisis intervention for community responders, and has taught virtual health sciences classes. Her work aims to help people develop coping tools and meaningful change over time.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection patterns affect current relationships and helps people build more stable bonds and clearer communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tricia will talk with each person about their goals, history, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical access. Video calls let people work face-to-face from wherever they are, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick touchpoints, ongoing coaching, and follow-up between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving duties, or busy schedules while using approaches that address anxiety, relationships, and coping skills.
