Approaches used and how online sessions work
Patti uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes tracking mood and behavior to spot patterns and test small changes; this helps with depression, bipolar mood shifts, and Seasonal Affective Disorder. Another approach involves structured processing of traumatic events through careful, paced discussion and stabilization strategies to reduce distress and build coping skills.Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and recommend approaches to try. Together you can decide which techniques to use and adjust them as you learn what helps most.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, keep regular check-ins during life transitions, and use brief sessions when a quick update is needed. It also lets people continue work on mood and trauma-focused techniques without traveling to an office, while still keeping the appointment structure and therapeutic exercises that support progress.
