About Patricia
Patricia Pardy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and holds the LCPC credential in Kansas, with 20 years of experience in counseling. She works in New York and helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, parenting challenges, grief, anger, depression, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English.
Patricia uses practical conversations to help people notice patterns that cause frustration or repeated conflict. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and reflect, and on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thoughts that feed anger and anxiety. Mindfulness and DBT skills are brought in to support emotional regulation and present-moment coping.
Her approach blends straightforward skill teaching with thoughtful listening. Clients learn breathing, grounding, and communication practices they can try between sessions. She also uses motivational interviewing strategies when people want to change habits or take specific steps toward goals.
Patricia has worked with people facing family stress, blended family issues, caregiving strain, and complex relationship dynamics. She also supports those exploring sexuality and kink in a nonjudgmental way, including BDSM and alternative sex culture concerns. Her background includes helping people with impulsivity, control issues, and problems that arise from family of origin.
Practical planning is part of her work. She helps clients set small, doable goals for handling anger and conflict. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Patricia draws on client-centered therapy to focus on the person’s concerns and priorities. This approach means sessions begin with listening and reflection, so clients can describe where anger or stress shows up and what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of reacting. CBT is practical work for problems like workplace frustration, rumination, or recurring arguments.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps the client meet their goals and fits their preferences. The therapist and client decide together which skills to practice between sessions and how to pace progress.
The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people use remote sessions to fit therapy into work breaks, reduce travel time, or choose shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online work can make it easier to practice grounding, breathing, and communication exercises in the moments they are needed, while still allowing face-to-face conversation when that is helpful.
