About Patricia
Patricia Pardy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Kansas Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in New York with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, parenting concerns, and issues tied to family history. She also addresses ADHD, grief, anger, and life changes.
Patricia uses straightforward conversation and practical techniques to help people recognize repeating patterns that come from their family of origin. She combines client-centered work with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolkit when helpful.
In sessions she focuses on clear skills and small experiments people can try between meetings. She helps identify thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going, then practices alternatives in-session. For parents and caregivers she pays attention to how past family roles shape current expectations and responses.
Patricia has worked in a range of settings over two decades, helping people manage stress, rebuild trust in relationships, and navigate separation or blended family transitions. She brings a practical approach to topics like communication problems, control issues, and parenting strains.
People who choose her often want a direct, steady way to sort out longstanding family patterns and figure out next steps. To begin, the site asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what she hears, and helps clarify goals and priorities. This approach is useful when someone needs a respectful place to sort out feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions involve identifying patterns, trying new ways of thinking, and practicing specific skills between meetings. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, and recurring relationship patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and practical strategies for communication and impulse control.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, adjusting as needed based on progress and feedback.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use the same therapeutic techniques online as they do in person, while adapting exercises and homework to suit remote sessions.
