Background and approach
She brings five years of clinical experience in Kentucky to her work and holds the credential Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW. That experience informs a flexible mix of therapies rather than a single formula. Patsy adapts techniques to each person’s needs and pace.

She also addresses issues such as grief, trauma, substance concerns, career strain, and caregiving stress. People describe sessions as collaborative and practical in focus.
In therapy she combines evidence-informed methods such as cognitive-behavioral tools, acceptance-based practices, and mindfulness exercises. The goal is to help people notice patterns, try small changes, and build routines that support steady progress. Patsy works in English and offers several online session formats to fit different schedules.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions by focusing on small, values-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges like time management and impulsivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patsy will discuss goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what helps most. That collaboration lets the client and therapist pick the best mix of ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or other tools for the person’s situation.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit varied schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill demonstrations and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and helpful when being on camera is difficult. Live chat or text messaging make it easier to check in between appointments or fit shorter coaching-style contacts into a busy day.
