About Patrick
Patrick draws on a person-centered foundation in sessions. That means conversations begin with the client's priorities and move at a pace that feels right for them. He mixes practical tools from several approaches to meet real-life needs rather than following a single method.
His background includes work in mental health and addiction settings, and he has provided telehealth services. Patrick also has military experience and a Christian counseling background, which inform how he meets people from varied life paths. He has worked with children, adolescents, and adults in past roles and has supported people dealing with substance use and trauma.
Across his practice he aims for collaboration. Sessions focus on identifying small, useful steps people can use between meetings. He emphasizes building coping skills for sleep, eating, anger, and career stress alongside emotional issues like grief, self-esteem, and intimacy struggles.
Patrick holds a master’s degree in counseling, MA, from Liberty University and provides clinical supervision for licensure candidates in Arizona. He practices in South Carolina and brings a patient, respectful style to each meeting.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. Online sessions using this approach center the client's goals, giving space to talk through worries and prioritize small changes.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsive behavior, and improving communication. Delivered online, DBT techniques can be practiced between meetings to help with stress, anger, and relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and can adjust techniques over time based on what helps most.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and making it easier to connect from different locations. Online work can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or longer sessions for deeper work, depending on what is arranged. The biography indicates prior telehealth experience, but current session formats should be confirmed before booking to ensure the chosen setup matches the client's needs.
