Online support

Evidence-based approaches in online care

Patrick uses practical, evidence-based techniques to address stress, anxiety, trauma, and addiction. One common approach focuses on teaching coping skills and behavioral changes that reduce avoidance and improve daily functioning. This helps with panic, social anxiety, and managing strong emotions.

Another approach centers on processing trauma symptoms through structured, gradual work that reduces reactivity and improves sleep, concentration, and relationships. This kind of work suits people dealing with post-traumatic stress or lingering effects of abuse. A third strand of his practice addresses substance use and codependency by combining relapse prevention strategies with skills for managing cravings and rebuilding routines.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Patrick works collaboratively with each person to identify goals, test methods, and adjust based on what helps most. He explains options plainly and checks in about progress and preferences as therapy continues.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling easier for busy lives. Video lets people work face to face, phone requires less bandwidth, chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins or people who prefer typing. These formats make therapy accessible from different locations and can fit into work breaks, evenings, or other routines.
