About Patricia
Patricia Fischer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem issues, and related mood concerns. She also addresses ADHD, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting questions, and help coping with life changes.
Her work focuses on clear, practical steps people can use between sessions. She listens first and then helps clients try techniques that fit everyday life.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are taught when emotional regulation and impulsivity are a concern.
She has spent two decades helping people through transitions related to aging, blended family issues, caregiving and end-of-life concerns. That experience also covers situations involving domestic violence, isolation, and mood instability. Her practice includes attention to practical problems like caregiving stress and relationship conflict.

BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Patricia often draws on client-centered therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around the person’s goals, which helps when someone needs space to sort priorities and set practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful behavior patterns.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation or impulsivity are central issues. DBT offers concrete techniques for tolerating distress, regulating strong emotions, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are taught in short, practiceable steps that can be used between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will work with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what’s working, adjust techniques, and pick the next steps based on real-life demands.
