About Patricia
Patricia Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in Kentucky with ten years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy struggles, and anger. She also supports people facing trauma, addiction, parenting concerns, ADHD, and related life changes.
Patricia uses clear, practical conversation in sessions. She listens to what feels most urgent and helps people sort through thoughts and reactions. She avoids labels and focuses on what people want to change in daily life.
Her approach draws on several methods. She uses client-centered ideas to keep the conversation focused on the person’s goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to notice unhelpful thinking and try new behavior. She also brings psychodynamic and narrative elements to look at patterns that repeat over time.
For trauma-related issues Patricia can include EMDR as one option among others. She has worked with people who experienced physical or emotional abuse and with those coping after loss or major life transitions. Sessions aim to reduce overwhelming feelings and to build clearer ways to respond when anger or frustration rise.
Patricia frames therapy as a practical process. She and the person set achievable steps and check progress. The focus is on problem solving, skills practice, and making small changes that fit everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches Patricia uses and how they work online
Patricia uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on each person's goals. This approach means the therapist listens, reflects, and helps people clarify what they want to change. It is useful for building motivation and sorting out relationship or parenting concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is also a frequent part of sessions. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors in everyday life. It is practical for anger, anxiety, and depression because it breaks problems into clear steps to practice between meetings.
EMDR is an option Patricia may use for trauma-related work. It is aimed at reducing the intensity of disturbing memories and the reactions that follow, usually as part of a broader plan rather than a standalone promise of outcomes.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative step. Patricia will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest methods to try. She checks in and adjusts plans based on what is working and what feels manageable.
If you want online sessions, confirm the specific session formats available before booking. The main benefit of online work is flexibility - it can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so progress continues between meetings.
