About Patricia

Patricia Haversham-Brown is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people who struggle with addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, and anger. She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, forgiveness, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. Patricia writes plainly and listens closely to what matters to each person.

She treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs instead of using one set method for everyone. Patricia works with clients to set practical goals and to find steps that feel manageable in day-to-day life.

Her background includes practice in New York and New Jersey as a licensed clinical social worker, and she draws on two decades of clinical experience. That experience has given her familiarity with a range of concerns from addiction to trauma-related symptoms.

In the therapy room she focuses on clear conversation, realistic goal setting, and building coping skills you can use between sessions. She aims to help people reduce distressing symptoms and improve how they manage relationships and stressors.

Patricia invites clients to be active partners in treatment. She adjusts pacing and techniques to match each person’s comfort level and progress. If you are considering starting therapy, she encourages completing the intake steps and scheduling a first appointment to see if the approach fits your needs.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Patricia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and trauma-informed care. One common technique helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed panic or addictive urges; it emphasizes step-by-step strategies and practice between sessions. Another commonly used approach focuses on processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional hold by working at a pace the client can manage.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Patricia works collaboratively to identify methods that match a person’s goals and preferences. She adjusts pace and exercises as you progress and checks in regularly to make sure the work feels useful.

Because the original biography does not specify session formats, please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue work on skills and coping strategies between appointments. Ask about the available session formats when you start the intake steps so you can pick the arrangement that best fits your routine.
