About Patrice
Patrice LaGrand is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in Michigan with five years of professional experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or life changes and helps them make practical steps forward.
She focuses on everyday problems like relationship tension, career uncertainty, anger, and feelings of emptiness. Patrice also supports people facing caregiving strain, chronic health issues, postpartum depression, and concerns that come with aging. Life purpose and midlife questions are among the topics she addresses.
In sessions she treats clients as the experts on their own story and looks for strengths to build on. Conversations are direct and practical. Patrice uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try small experiments that can change daily habits.
Clients can expect a focus on clear goals and steps rather than abstract theory. Patrice draws on motivational interviewing to help people find reasons to change and client-centered work to listen and reflect what matters to each person. The overall aim is to identify manageable next steps for life, relationships, and work.
She offers sessions in English and works from a Michigan-based practice. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching process and schedule a first session through the platform.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and questions about life direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patrice will discuss these methods with each person and together decide which fits the person's goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists also use different approaches online to practice skills, set concrete goals, and follow up on experiments between sessions.
