About Patricia

Patricia Pardy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in New York with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship strains. She also addresses parenting and blended family issues along with workplace and life transitions.

Patricia uses straightforward, conversational work in sessions. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and clarify what matters most. She adds tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness practices are used for emotion regulation and staying present.

In practical terms Patricia helps people sort priorities, set manageable goals, and try small changes between meetings. She discusses relationship patterns and communication habits without taking sides. For parents and adults in blended households she works on boundaries, role confusion, and getting routines to fit together.

Her background includes two decades of counseling across stress, trauma, and life-change concerns. Patricia mixes motivational interviewing to support decisions and narrative techniques to help people reframe their stories. She keeps sessions focused and action-oriented when clients want that, and reflective when deeper processing is needed.

Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients who want to proceed complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's online options.

How Patricia’s approaches translate to online work

Patricia combines client-centered talking with practical skills training. Client-centered work means the therapist listens, reflects, and follows what matters most to the person. This helps clarify goals for relationship or blended household challenges. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns. That approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, and communication habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful when tensions run high in merged households.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Patricia will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then recommend methods to try. Sessions can shift over time from skills practice to deeper reflection depending on how things progress, and she treats the decision as collaborative rather than fixed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Ask which online session options are currently offered so you know how meetings are scheduled. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so appointments can happen between work or caregiving tasks.
