Patrick Reynolds, LPC

Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of clinical work behind him. He focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction concerns, and relationship or family strain. He writes in a direct, hopeful style and aims to walk alongside people as they make changes.

He uses a person-centered way of working that puts the client's goals first. From there he draws on techniques from dialectical behavior work, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused ideas to shape practical sessions. The aim is to match methods to the problem at hand rather than force a single model.

Patrick's background includes work in mental health and addiction settings and experience providing telehealth services. He has also supervised clinicians pursuing licensure in Arizona. This mix gives him experience with varied challenges and with people coming from different walks of life.

In sessions he focuses on clear goals and small steps people can try between meetings. He often helps people build coping skills, manage intense emotions, and find motivation for change. The work also covers grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, and career stress among other issues.

People who choose him can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental tone and collaboration on what to try next. He encourages open conversation about values, past hurts, and practical changes so people can move toward steadier routines and healthier coping.

How Patrick’s approaches work in online therapy

Patrick blends client-centered methods with elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing. Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding the person’s goals and values so the plan reflects what matters most. DBT techniques teach skills for managing intense emotions and improving stress tolerance. Motivational interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change and build motivation to try new behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their priorities, past experiences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to emphasize and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and let people connect from quieter surroundings without travel. Licensed professionals can use these options to focus on skill-building, problem solving, and emotional processing in ways that fit daily routines.
