About Patricia
Patricia Brickman is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Washington. She has three years of experience providing therapy and a background working in inpatient psychiatric units, residential eating disorder treatment, and community outpatient settings. Patricia focuses on helping adults build clearer self-understanding and find practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns.
She earned a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Northwest University in Kirkland, WA in 2018 and has been practicing as a therapist since then. Her early work in higher-acuity settings informs how she responds when people are in intense emotional states or facing complex problems.
Patricia’s style centers on a client-centered approach that pays attention to each person’s goals and experiences. She combines emotion-focused work with skills drawn from dialectical behavior therapy and cognitive strategies to address painful thoughts and overwhelming feelings. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the client's needs.
She often helps people navigate relationship struggles, body image and eating concerns, parenting stress and postpartum issues, trauma, and major life transitions. Patricia also addresses attachment-related patterns and challenges that show up in close relationships. Her focus includes work around self-esteem, grief, addiction, and career stress.
In sessions she aims to create a direct, calm space for people to talk through what feels stuck. Patricia helps clients learn concrete coping skills, notice patterns that get in the way, and practice small changes that lead to clearer choices.
