About Patricia
LMFT in Washington with 4 years of experience, Patricia Bailey helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting and relationship concerns. She lists family and fatherhood issues, communication problems, and divorce or separation among her focus areas. Patricia works from practical methods such as cognitive behavioral strategies alongside emotionally focused and narrative approaches.
She uses simple, concrete steps in sessions. Patricia listens to what is happening now and then helps people try new ways of thinking and acting. She applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and uses Mindfulness practices to reduce overwhelm.
When relationship conflict is present she draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method to address interaction patterns. Those approaches focus on how people respond to one another and on rebuilding safer, clearer communication.
Patricia also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify goals and find their own reasons to change. Narrative techniques are included to reframe difficult stories into more manageable ones.
She says that plans are adapted to each person’s situation and that progress is shaped step by step. Patricia asks practical questions early on about what a person hopes to change and what has or hasn’t worked before. That helps make the work in sessions focused and measurable.

How these approaches work in remote sessions
Patricia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and then practice small, doable changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks problems into concrete steps.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method when relationship work is needed. EFT looks at how people respond emotionally to each other and seeks clearer, more regulated interactions. The Gottman Method focuses on communication skills and patterns that either reduce or increase conflict.
Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Patricia will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels practical, then try approaches that fit the situation. That collaborative process can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
