About Patricia
ACA counsellor and PACFA member with nine years' experience, Patricia Lewis helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, family conflict, trauma and low self-esteem. She works in Australia and offers services in English and Spanish. Patricia uses a mix of talking therapies to guide practical change and clearer thinking.
Patricia focuses on problem solving and building skills that make daily life easier. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. She also draws on Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their stories and on Mindfulness techniques to reduce overwhelm.
Sessions include conversations about relationship patterns and communication. Patricia addresses issues such as codependency, jealousy, divorce and domestic violence by helping people set personal boundaries and practise new ways of relating. She supports people coping with sexual assault, abuse and family of origin problems with careful pacing and listening.
She also works with clients concerned about workplace stress, career decisions and finding life purpose. Patricia will talk through practical steps for confidence building and career-related choices.
Patricia is a qualified Christian counsellor for clients who want faith-informed discussion as part of counselling. Her approach is collaborative: she treats each person as the expert on their own life and builds on existing strengths.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time; fees vary by location. International clients are not accepted.

How Patricia applies therapy online
Patricia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is practical and problem focused, often used for anxiety, stress and low mood. She also uses Narrative Therapy to help clients separate themselves from problem-saturated stories and rewrite personal narratives to reflect strengths and choices. Mindfulness techniques are used alongside these approaches to teach breathing and attention skills that reduce immediate overwhelm.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will discuss goals and preferences with each person and decide together which methods to use. That collaborative selection lets them adapt techniques as issues change over time.
The therapist's biography lists available communication options through live sessions, but session formats are not detailed here. Confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people access therapy in different languages, such as English and Spanish, without needing to travel.
