About Patricia
Patricia Uhan is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, and low self-esteem. She works with adults who are struggling with depression and related difficulties. Her manner is warm and empathetic, and she aims to create a space where people can talk honestly about what is hard for them.
Patricia draws on several therapeutic approaches to fit each person's needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take small actions that matter to them.
Her background includes work in community mental health settings. There she supported survivors of sexual abuse and assault and worked with people facing PTSD, substance use concerns, and co-occurring mental health conditions. She has also worked with individuals living with severe and persistent mental illness and dual diagnosis.
Patricia pays attention to cultural identity and how it shapes a person’s experience. She blends attachment-focused ideas and dialectical behavior therapy skills when those fit the situation. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer thinking, and steps a person can take between appointments.
People who choose Patricia can expect a collaborative approach. She helps set goals together and adjusts methods as progress and needs change. The focus is on steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose small actions aligned with personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and the distress that follows traumatic events. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful habits, which is useful for stress, low mood, and worry. Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes relationships and early patterns that shape how people connect, which can be helpful when past losses or attachment wounds influence current reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process allows methods to be tried and adjusted over time rather than locked in at the start.
Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a full appointment is not needed. It also supports continuing care after a disruption, which can be particularly relevant for people coping with disasters or sudden changes. Licensed professionals can combine skill practice, values work, and behavior-focused tools in remote sessions to keep progress moving forward.
