About Patricia
Patricia Foyder-DeVoe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and major life changes. She meets clients in a straightforward, compassionate way and focuses on what each person wants to accomplish in therapy. Patricia speaks English and Spanish and practices from New York.
Her work centers on building a real therapeutic relationship. She aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk frankly about problems like grief, trauma, addictions, or career stress.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding deeper patterns that keep problems repeating. Patricia draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing patterns and attachment issues. She also uses Client-Centered methods to keep sessions grounded in the client's goals and preferences.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used when clients need tools for coping, managing emotions, or changing unhelpful behavior. Over her career she has worked in community mental health and independent practice settings. That background informs a flexible style that moves between talk therapy, skills work, and problem-solving.
She often helps people navigate parenting strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and the emotional fallout of separation or loss. People who come for help can expect a collaborative process. Patricia helps set clear goals and offers approaches that match each person's needs, whether the focus is on improving intimacy, managing ADHD symptoms, addressing eating concerns, or reducing stress.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Patricia commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and helping clients set their own goals; this approach works well for people wanting support with self-esteem, relationship concerns, or life transitions. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities, offering specific tools for handling intense feelings.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend methods that fit. The plan can shift over time as goals change and progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to share thoughts between sessions or to check in briefly during busy days. These formats provide flexibility to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or treatment schedules while keeping the work focused on concrete skills and relationship patterns.
