About Patricia

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with nine years of experience. Patricia Walker works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She uses practical therapy methods to help people manage symptoms and build coping skills.

Patricia blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral strategies. She helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. She also uses dialectical behavior techniques and mindfulness to teach emotional regulation and grounding skills.

Her approach respects faith and spiritual beliefs when those matter to a person. She listens for each person’s values and adapts conversations to fit them. Sessions focus on clear goals, real-life steps, and regular check-ins on progress.

Patricia also addresses issues that come with aging and caregiving. She supports people dealing with hospice and end-of-life concerns, family of origin problems, and loneliness. Substance-related issues, domestic violence impacts, and veteran-related trauma are also within her focus areas.

She uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools to help people make changes they actually want. Therapy sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The therapist follows the client’s concerns and helps people set their own goals, which can clarify steps to take between appointments.

Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems by using straightforward exercises and thought records.

Dialectical behavior therapy emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal communication. These tools are often used when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will discuss which methods fit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress is tracked. That decision is made together during the first few sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day, allowing shorter check-ins or sessions that avoid travel. Ask about session length, scheduling rhythm, and any format preferences when completing the matching questionnaire.
