Her work includes support for people facing divorce or separation, pregnancy and childbirth transitions, and midlife changes.
Clients can expect a tailored plan that fits their situation. Tricia emphasizes small, manageable steps that build confidence and improve intimacy and self-image over time. Progress is reviewed regularly so the plan can change as needs do.

Evidence-based approaches for online care
Tricia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes building small behavior changes and coping skills to reduce anxiety and improve mood. This helps when stress feels constant and daily routines become hard to manage.Another approach focuses on communication patterns and relationship skills. Sessions look at how people express needs, handle conflict, and rebuild intimacy, and then practice new ways of speaking and listening that can change interaction patterns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper work, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits the day, and text or chat works well for quick reflections or ongoing support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep momentum between sessions.
