    About Patrice

    Patrice Brantley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with ten years of experience. She helps people who are feeling stuck, anxious, or stressed take the first step toward change. Patrice focuses on practical support and respectful listening as a starting point.

    She works with clients on common life struggles such as low self-esteem, career concerns, and trouble coping with major changes. She also supports people facing trauma, depression, sleep problems, anger, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Patrice addresses caregiving stress, parenting concerns, and challenges tied to identity and multicultural experiences.

    Patrice draws on approaches like motivational interviewing, client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness-based ideas. In sessions she helps clients build skills, try small changes, and notice what works. Conversations are tailored to each person’s needs and goals rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

    Her style is compassionate and straightforward. She aims to create clear steps clients can use between sessions. Patrice encourages people to set manageable goals and to track progress in ways that fit their life.

    If you want a therapist who listens and helps you map out practical next steps, Patrice offers that steady, goal-focused support. To begin, follow the site’s matching and scheduling flow to set up an initial session.

  2. Approaches that guide online sessions

    Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to help someone find their motivation and build momentum toward goals. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s perspective at the center of sessions and emphasizes empathic listening and acceptance to help clarify goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and teaches practical skills to test and change unhelpful patterns.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patrice will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that fit their goals and preferences. That might mean mixing techniques, pacing skill practice to what feels manageable, and adjusting plans as progress is reviewed.

    If you are considering online work, confirm the available session formats before booking since formats are listed during signup. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also supports using tools like structured worksheets, mindfulness exercises, and skill practice between meetings so progress continues between sessions.
