About Patricia
Patricia King is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Georgia. She has 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and big life changes. Patricia aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about the hard stuff and learn practical ways to cope.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy together with a person-centered outlook to guide sessions. That means she helps clients notice how thoughts affect feelings and behavior, while keeping the person's goals and values central.
Background and approach
Patricia often teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, reducing stress, processing trauma, and improving mood. Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Troy University and a Master of Science in Vocational Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from Thomas University. Over the years she has worked in developmental disabilities, geriatric services, behavioral health, and vocational rehabilitation.
Those roles shaped her practical approach to problem solving and assessment. In sessions she focuses on building a trusting relationship first. From there she and the client set clear goals and work on tools that fit daily life.
Patricia emphasizes small, steady steps so skills become usable outside therapy. Outside of work she spends time with her family and two sons. She presents herself as steady and committed to helping people find ways to feel more capable and in control.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Patricia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on practical steps and behavior changes. She also brings a person-centered way of working that keeps the client's goals and values at the center of each session. This helps people feel heard while they try new coping strategies.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made or needs change.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is good when a fuller conversation is needed and body language helps, while phone calls can fit into a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text can be useful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when someone prefers written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and stick with the work over time.
