About Patrick
LPCC (Ohio) counselor with nine years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, and self-esteem concerns. Patrick Mettle focuses on practical skills and straightforward conversation to help people cope with major life changes.
Patrick uses clear, evidence-based approaches to help people sort feelings and try new ways of reacting. Sessions emphasize problem solving, recognizing unhelpful patterns, and building small habits that make everyday life easier. He guides clients through steps rather than giving abstract advice.
People come to Patrick for help with addiction and process-related behaviors, for support after loss, and for improving motivation and confidence. He also works with issues such as abandonment, dependent personality traits, guilt and shame, and problems that arise during divorce or midlife shifts. There is also experience addressing concerns related to aging and veteran and armed forces issues.
Meetings are focused and practical. Patrick listens, reflects what he hears, and suggests concrete exercises to try between sessions. He helps clients track progress and adjust approaches when something isn’t working.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow the scope of an Ohio LPCC. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To start, select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

Evidence-based approaches used in remote sessions
Patrick works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and behavior change. Cognitive-focused methods look at thought patterns that increase anxiety or shame and teach ways to test and shift those thoughts. These approaches help with stress, low self-esteem, and worries that get in the way of daily tasks.For addictions and process behaviors, he uses behavioral strategies that break cycles of urges and reward. This includes planning alternative responses, changing routines that trigger use, and short practical exercises to lower risk during high-stress moments.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. He will help clients decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan as needed. That choice is based on symptoms, life demands, and what the client is willing to try.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as no specific formats are listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find virtual work helps maintain regular appointments and apply new skills between sessions.
