About Patricia
Patricia Price is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 18 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting concerns. Her practice also addresses relationships, family issues, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, career changes, coping with life transitions, and compassion fatigue.
Patricia describes counseling as a collaborative, often relatively short-term effort. She expects clients to take an active role, including doing homework such as exercises or journal writing. She supports and educates while asking that clients commit time and effort to see change.
Her approach draws on client-centered methods and cognitive-behavioral ideas, along with solution-focused techniques. That means sessions often focus on clear goals, practical steps, and understanding how choices affect daily life. Patricia helps people identify goals, estimate the time needed, and create a plan to monitor progress.
Sessions include discussion of risks and benefits and periodic review of how the plan is working. If progress stalls, she will revise the plan with the client. Patricia also emphasizes that the counseling relationship is professional rather than personal, and she orients work toward the issues presented in sessions.
She completed a Master of Arts in Service Agency Counseling from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke. Over her career she has worked in community and school settings, bringing experience from both outpatient agency work and public school counseling to her practice.
How sessions work
How her approaches guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can explore what matters to them. It helps when someone needs space to clarify values, choices, and what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to shift patterns that maintain anxiety, low mood, or stress. Solution-focused therapy narrows attention to specific goals and small steps that move a person toward those goals more quickly.Finding the right approach is often part of early sessions. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit best based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can be adjusted over time if a different focus would help more.
The biography does not specify exact online session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life because it reduces travel and can allow shorter check-ins during a break. It also makes it possible to continue work with a licensed professional from another state or country when international clients are accepted. Sessions typically combine conversation, practical exercises, and homework designed to be used between meetings.
