About Patricia
Patricia Lee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon with 24 years of experience in mental health and medical social work. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and parenting challenges. Patricia also helps with trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She treats clients as partners and sets treatment goals together. Patricia explains any methods she uses and asks questions to help clients look at their situation differently. She focuses on identifying strengths inside each person and in their families so clients can build on what already works.
Earlier in her career she worked with children, adolescents, and parents. Most of her recent work has been with adults across a range of concerns, including chronic illness and end-of-life issues. She has provided individual therapy, couples sessions, family sessions, and groups in clinics and private practice settings.
Patricia has particular experience supporting adults receiving outpatient dialysis and people managing caregiving stress. She also addresses attachment, abandonment, communication problems, and mood disorders. Patricia keeps clients informed about progress and about the approaches she uses so people know what to expect.
She understands practical barriers to starting therapy, such as scheduling and stigma, and aims to work with clients to reduce those obstacles. To begin, clients follow the site process to select online therapy options, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters to the client. In practice this means the therapist follows the client’s lead, asks clarifying questions, and helps people name strengths they can use to handle stress, relationship strain, or life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of coping with anxiety, low mood, or avoidance in social situations.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Patricia will talk with each person about goals and preferences and recommend methods that fit their needs. This is a collaborative process and may change as progress is tracked.
Confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as the profile does not list formats here. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to continue care while managing medical appointments or caregiver responsibilities. Ask about the session options offered when you complete the matching questionnaire so you can pick what works best for your schedule and needs.
