Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of experience. He draws on a person-centered way of working to help people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem. Patrick writes plainly and meets people where they are, offering steady support as they make changes.
He holds a Master of Arts in Counseling and has worked in clinical, addiction, and telehealth settings. He also provides clinical supervision for licensure candidates in Arizona. His background includes military experience and Christian counseling work, which inform a broad perspective on common life struggles.
In sessions he focuses on practical steps. He listens first, then helps set small goals clients can try between meetings. Techniques come from client-centered approaches, dialectical behavior ideas, motivational interviewing, solution-focused work, and trauma-focused methods. He adapts those tools to each person's needs rather than following a fixed formula.
Patrick commonly addresses relationship and family problems, coping with life transitions, grief, parenting stress, anger, and issues around addiction. He also supports people dealing with eating or sleeping problems, career pressures, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Self-esteem is a recurring focus for many who seek his help.
He aims for a collaborative, nonjudgmental tone. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with attention to safety and progress. People who want clear steps and an empathetic guide often find this practical approach helpful.
Approaches commonly used in online therapy
Patrick often uses client-centered work that starts by listening closely to what matters most to the person. This approach helps people feel understood before deciding on next steps and can be especially useful for self-esteem and relationship concerns.
He also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas to teach practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal interactions. DBT-based exercises can help with anxiety, anger, and coping during strong stress. Motivational Interviewing is another tool he uses to help people find their own reasons to change and build small, achievable steps toward goals.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what works. Patrick aims to tailor methods to each person’s needs and preferences rather than applying a single model.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose sessions that match their comfort level, for example focusing on skills practice or goal review rather than long narrative sessions.
