About Patrick
Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of practice experience in South Carolina. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and a wide range of other issues listed in his specialties. Sessions draw on a mix of approaches Patrick uses to help people manage life changes and emotional difficulties.
Patrick’s background includes work in mental health and addiction settings and experience with telehealth. He has supported people struggling with substance use, grief, trauma, and relationship strain. He also provides clinical supervision to licensure candidates in Arizona as a certified supervisor and brings perspectives formed over many years in varied roles.
In sessions he focuses on practical skills and clear goals. He uses client-centered conversation as a base and adds techniques from approaches such as dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing. That combination is used to address emotions, coping, and decision points people face now.
People often come with family-of-origin patterns, attachment concerns, or recurring relationship roles that still affect daily life. Patrick helps people identify those patterns and try different ways of relating and reacting. Work can include building emotional regulation skills, improving communication, and setting boundaries.
He also supports people dealing with career stress, caregiving strain, sleep or eating difficulties, attention concerns, and long-term medical or disability challenges. The focus is on practical steps, clarifying priorities, and managing symptoms enough to move toward clearer choices.
How Patrick’s approaches translate to online sessions
Patrick uses client-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) as core parts of his approach. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and building understanding so people can make their own choices. DBT adds practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which helps with anxiety, anger, and relationship stress.He also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. That method is brief and goal-oriented, useful for decisions about substance use, lifestyle shifts, or building new habits. Together these approaches aim to be collaborative - the therapist and client work together to decide which methods fit the person’s goals and preferences.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also allow focus on skills practice between meetings, tracking progress, and keeping therapy consistent during life changes. The therapist will help choose the best approach and session rhythm based on practical needs and personal goals.
