About Patrick
Patrick Gribel is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with four years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-worth, burnout, and major life transitions. He also supports people exploring identity, culture, faith, or meaning, and he offers sessions in English and Portuguese.
Patrick uses a reflective, unhurried approach. He pays attention to both present struggles and the deeper patterns that may keep problems coming back. These patterns can include early relationships, repeated roles people take, or persistent self-criticism.
Sessions focus on helping clients notice what keeps showing up and then testing new ways of responding. Conversations often move between current challenges and underlying themes. Patrick invites reflection and aims to help people feel steadier over time.
He draws on attachment-based ideas alongside therapies that support practical change, such as cognitive behavioral strategies and acceptance-oriented work. This mix lets him address both emotional experience and daily habits that affect mood and relationships.
People who prefer thoughtful, calm sessions that balance depth and practical tools tend to fit his style. Patrick asks questions, listens closely, and works with each person to set clear next steps. Starting a first session does not require having all the answers ready.
Approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people clarify what matters most and then take small steps toward those values, which can be useful for anxiety and life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they affect current connections. It helps people recognize repeated ways of relating and practice different responses in relationships and social situations.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then collaborate on an approach to try. That plan can change as progress is made.
