About Patricia

Patricia Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Kentucky with ten years of experience as a therapist. She has worked with people facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, ADHD, and issues around addiction and grief. Patricia aims to make the first steps toward help feel manageable and respectful.

Her style is warm and interactive. She listens without judgment and avoids stigmatizing labels. Sessions are guided by the person in the room, and she tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs.

Patricia uses a mix of approaches drawn from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic ideas, Narrative Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. In practice this means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, reflect on past patterns, tell the stories that shape them, and process difficult memories when needed.

She often focuses on practical steps that fit daily life. That can include short exercises between sessions, ways to manage strong emotions, and strategies for clearer communication in relationships. Patricia also helps people who are coping with big life changes, body image concerns, attachment or adoption and foster care issues.

People who want a respectful, down-to-earth therapist who adapts methods to their goals tend to find her approach useful. If someone is ready to make a change, she offers steady support while they work toward clearer coping and healthier patterns.

Approaches that translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship so people can explore what matters to them. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through feelings and life decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. It often includes short exercises people can try between sessions.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional impact. When appropriate, this approach combines focused recall with specific processing techniques to help people feel less overwhelmed by past events.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Patricia will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods fit best. She adapts plans as progress is made so sessions match the person's needs and pace.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to attend sessions from different locations, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and use short check-ins or longer therapy times as needed. Many people find it helps them keep continuity while they practice new skills in everyday life.
