Patricia Price, LCMHC

Patricia Price is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and work-related burnout. She works with concerns like trauma, anger, self-esteem, intimacy issues, family conflicts, and coping with life changes. Patricia brings 18 years of experience to her work in North Carolina and supports international clients in English.

Her approach is collaborative and goal-focused. Sessions usually involve talking through current problems, setting clear goals, and trying small practical steps between meetings. She asks clients to be active in the process and may suggest exercises or journal writing to reinforce progress.

Patricia uses cognitive behavioral ideas along with client-centered and solution-focused approaches to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. She helps clients weigh choices, set manageable goals, and track what changes help most. Progress is reviewed regularly and plans are adjusted when needed.

She trained in counseling at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke and has worked in school and community settings. Patricia has long experience helping people find realistic ways to manage emotions and everyday demands. Her method is straightforward: listen, clarify goals, practice skills, and check results.

People who prefer a practical, supportive style often benefit from her mix of problem-solving and empathic listening. Patricia emphasizes collaboration, clear steps, and realistic expectations as clients work toward their goals.

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Patricia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship so clients can explore feelings and make their own choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Patricia will listen to your goals and preferences, explain the options, and try methods that fit your needs. She checks progress regularly and changes the plan if something is not helping.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling easier to fit into daily life. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can be a simpler option with lower bandwidth, and chat or messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats make it possible to keep regular work on goals without long commutes and help people balance therapy with family, school, or job obligations.
