Patrick Reynolds, LPC

Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with twenty years of practice. He focuses on helping people who are carrying heavy stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma find clearer paths forward. He uses straightforward conversation and practical tools so clients can make small, steady changes that matter in day-to-day life.

He draws primarily from client-centered methods, then brings in techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy as needed. Sessions emphasize listening first, then setting simple, achievable goals. The work often includes building coping skills, improving communication, and addressing painful events or substance use issues.

Patrick has worked in mental health and addiction settings and has experience with telehealth. His background includes military service and a Christian counseling foundation, which inform a broad perspective when helping people with varied life challenges. He also provides clinical supervision to some licensure candidates.

Many people come for help with relationships, family stress, grief, parenting strain, or career pressures. Others seek support for ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, eating and sleeping problems, or compassion fatigue. Patrick aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space for each person to talk through what matters most.

To begin, he invites people to describe their immediate struggles and goals. From there he collaborates on a plan that fits the person’s pace and priorities, focusing on practical steps and steady progress.

How these approaches guide online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so the person feels understood. It helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to sort through feelings and decisions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing self-destructive behaviors. It can be useful for people dealing with intense mood swings, anger, or difficulty regulating emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patrick will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit their needs and goals. That means checking in about what helps, adjusting techniques, and setting short-term goals together.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week. It can reduce travel time, allow quicker follow-ups after a difficult day, and let people join from quieter surroundings when that helps them focus. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm the current session options before booking so you know whether video, phone, or other formats are offered. The practical aim is to make therapy fit daily life, not add extra stress.
