About Patricia

Patricia Robbins is a counsellor with 18 years' experience who aims to work alongside people to find practical ways forward. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and takes a warm, collaborative approach that supports autonomy and personal choice.

She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where conversations are tailored to each person. Patricia uses a mix of approaches to suit the individual's needs, and she focuses on helping with everyday struggles such as stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing trauma, addiction, grief and health-related challenges.

Her work combines elements from cognitive-behavioural, attachment-informed and client-centred ways of working. That means sessions often include talking through patterns, trying out new coping strategies and building clearer ways of relating to others. Conversations are structured around goals the person brings to therapy.

Patricia also helps people manage complex or overlapping issues including ADHD, bipolar tendencies, caregiving strain and chronic illness. She pays attention to how past relationships and attachment styles affect current difficulties and uses that understanding to guide practical steps.

People who choose Patricia can expect supportive challenge alongside practical tools. She encourages small, realistic changes and makes space to process strong emotions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

Sessions are offered in English and Patricia accepts international clients. The cost of sessions varies with location and a subscription is used that can be cancelled at any time.

How Therapy Approaches Translate Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and coping with life changes by teaching small, value-led steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques for changing unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns and can be helpful for intimacy, trust and recurring relationship struggles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work, caring duties or treatment commitments. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking to know what will fit your routine and goals.
