About Patricia
Patricia Wolfenden is a licensed therapist in Florida who blends practical, person-centered care with goal-focused strategies. She holds credentials as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and brings 25 years of clinical experience to her work. Patricia speaks English and meets people without rushing them, helping them take the first steps when life feels overwhelming.
She believes each person knows their own story and arrives with strengths that can be used to move forward. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and building small, doable changes that add up. Patricia uses clear tools to address stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and grief while keeping the client’s values in view.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful patterns and build new coping skills. Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused methods guide conversations about relationship wounds and how to repair them. Client-Centered therapy keeps the work rooted in the client’s perspective and priorities.
Patricia has worked with people facing family conflict, abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, chronic illness, codependency, and complications from separation or domestic violence. She also supports those handling career stress, compassion fatigue, and the long-term effects of trauma.
People who come for therapy can expect straightforward conversations, clear goals, and practical strategies to use between sessions. To begin, readers can use the site Start Therapy process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.
How Patricia’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with what matters most. It supports work on values, coping with difficult feelings, and making small committed actions toward a better life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and uses skill practice to change those patterns. Emotionally-Focused and Attachment-Based ideas guide conversations about relationship wounds, how emotions shape reactions, and how to build more secure connections.Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Patricia will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then recommend approaches that fit. The process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Session formats are not listed in her biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during a lunch break or between obligations. It can also let people use a simpler audio call when video would be difficult, or keep therapy focused on short skill-practice and problem-solving if that is preferred.
