About Patricia

Patricia Borrello-Monie is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Louisiana with 28 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, self-esteem struggles, career difficulties, and anger. She also addresses relationship and family concerns as they affect individuals. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use in daily life.

She uses straightforward conversation to identify what is getting in the way of change. Patricia leans on methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. Mindfulness and client-centered work are part of how she helps people stay present and feel heard.

People often come for help with sleep, eating, and coping with life changes. She has worked with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and long-term conditions such as bipolar disorder. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, aging concerns, and end-of-life topics.

Sessions involve setting clear goals and testing small, doable steps between meetings. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused ideas inform how she helps people find momentum and maintain it. Patricia aims for practical tools rather than abstract talk.

Her approach stresses collaboration and steady progress. She asks questions, listens, and suggests exercises that fit everyday routines. The emphasis is on usable skills people can try right away to reduce reactivity and build better patterns.

How Patricia’s approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when strong emotions come up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thought and behavior patterns and uses practical exercises to change how people respond to stress, anger, and anxiety. Mindfulness practice teaches simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and improve focus in tense moments.

Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. Patricia will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps. The therapist and client work together to find strategies that fit daily life and current challenges.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can be easier to fit into busy schedules, requires less travel time, and can allow shorter check-in sessions when needed. Online sessions can support regular practice of the CBT and ACT exercises Patricia uses, making it easier to try tools between meetings and track what works.
