About Patrick

Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with twenty years of experience. He offers a steady, person-centered approach that puts the client first. Patrick focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction while paying attention to relationships and men's wellbeing concerns.

He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space. He also uses elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to meet people where they are. Sessions emphasize practical skills, clearer thinking, and small steps toward change.

Patrick has worked in clinical and addiction settings and has provided telehealth services. His background includes military experience and work informed by Christian counseling perspectives, which influence how he connects with people from varied backgrounds. He has also provided clinical supervision to counseling candidates in Arizona.

In sessions he listens, reflects, and helps people set realistic goals. He supports people coping with relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, sleep and eating problems, and career pressures. He also addresses concerns such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, and chronic health challenges.

People looking to start therapy can expect collaborative work focused on practical tools and steady encouragement. Patrick aims to walk beside clients as they try new strategies and build more resilience over time.

Approaches that fit online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people feel understood. It is useful when someone needs a steady, respectful space to talk through stress, relationship strain, or life changes.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication. It can help with intense emotions, anger, and patterns that keep recurring.

Motivational Interviewing helps people weigh their options and find internal motivation for change. It is often used when someone faces addiction, low motivation, or ambivalence about next steps.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to goals, needs, and comfort. Together they will try strategies and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not specify them. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into daily life easier by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering options that match work and family schedules. Ask about which formats are available to choose what works best.
