About Patrice

Patrice Brantley is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, low motivation, self-esteem struggles, career questions, and major life changes. Patrice also supports concerns related to trauma, relationships, parenting, and ADHD as described in her profile.

Her work is direct and conversational. She listens to what matters most and uses practical steps to address immediate problems like sleep disruption, persistent worry, or difficulty making choices. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, manageable changes rather than long, abstract plans.

Patrice uses several evidence-based approaches to guide sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking. She uses client-centered methods to keep discussions grounded in each person’s values. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing help when motivation is low or emotions feel overwhelming.

People come to Patrice for a mix of life concerns: career shifts, parenting stress, caregiver strain, midlife questions, money worries, and identity issues tied to LGBT or multicultural experiences. She also addresses intimacy-related problems, commitment concerns, and patterns of anger or guilt.

Her practical aim is to help clients notice what’s working, try different coping strategies, and make steady adjustments. She offers straightforward feedback and partners with clients to set realistic next steps. To begin, clients follow the site's matching process and schedule an initial session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy puts the client's concerns and goals at the center and relies on attentive listening and open questions. Online sessions use this same stance to clarify priorities and decide what to focus on next.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In an online format, the therapist and client review patterns together, try short experiments between sessions, and track small changes over time.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) techniques offer practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Skill practice and brief coaching around emotion regulation can be part of remote sessions when those needs arise.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client's goals, and adjust based on what helps. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the plan stays relevant to their life.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, or join from a location that better matches a daily routine.
