About Patricia
Patricia Uhan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Missouri with four years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. Patricia also supports people coping with abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and related issues.
She has worked in community mental health settings where she supported survivors of sexual abuse and assault. That work included treating people with PTSD, substance use concerns, and concurrent mental health conditions. She has also worked with individuals facing severe and persistent mental illness and dual diagnosis in diverse communities.
Patricia uses a mix of approaches to match the situation and the person. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions and relationships.
Her practice also includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, and client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s goals. Sessions focus on practical tools - skills for managing strong emotions, communication strategies, and steps to reduce upsetting patterns.
When anger shows up as frequent outbursts, simmering resentment, or trouble after conflicts, she helps people name what drives the reactions and practice different responses. Patricia encourages straightforward skill work alongside talking through the past to reduce repeated patterns. If you want a clear plan for handling anger and stress, she builds concrete steps you can try between sessions.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Patricia commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT emphasizes noticing painful thoughts and values-based action so people can live toward what matters despite strong feelings. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to shift mood and reactions.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns affect present responses, which can be useful for people who notice anger linked to feeling abandoned or controlled. These approaches are practical and goal oriented, helping people build skills they can use between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will discuss options and choose methods together with each person, based on needs, goals, and what feels usable in daily life. That collaboration helps shape a clear plan for managing anger and stress.
