Patricia Glynn, LMHC, LCMHC

Patricia Glynn is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and changes in life direction. She helps people who are dealing with eating and body-image concerns, grief, trauma, addictions, ADHD, and career or purpose questions. Patricia writes short, clear plans with clients and focuses on skills that can be used right away.

Patricia blends practical techniques with a warm, encouraging style. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered ideas, mindfulness, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and narrative work. Sessions are grounded in everyday language and concrete steps rather than academic jargon.

Her approach starts by listening closely to what matters to each person. From there she and the client build a personalized plan that targets habits, thoughts, and behaviors that get in the way. The work often includes practice between sessions so new skills stick.

Patricia trained at the University of South Florida, earning a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling. She holds licensure in Florida as an LMHC and has eight years of counseling experience. Her background also includes decades in the fitness and wellness field, which she brings into conversations about lifestyle and self-care.

Sessions focus on realistic change and building strengths. Patricia aims to be practical, compassionate, and occasionally lighthearted while helping people move toward a more meaningful life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Patricia often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with habits like eating or avoidance.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions focus on listening, empathy, and supporting each person’s own goals. This approach helps people feel heard and able to explore values, life purpose, or relationship concerns at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Patricia will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then adapt techniques to fit the person. She collaborates on a plan and adjusts methods as progress is made.

Online therapy with her is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls are useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging helps keep work going between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work consistently.
