More about Patrice
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a counselor licensed in Alabama with over 10 years of experience working as substance abuse counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges and daily life issues in general.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing and solution focused therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It is my goal to help you identify the confidence and strength that lies with in you to take the necessary steps toward a better you. Life is a journey not a destination. Let me help you navigate through life's journey.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
