About Patricia
Patricia Foyder-DeVoe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 25 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, and parenting and career pressures. Patricia also addresses trauma, grief, addictions, ADHD, eating and body image concerns, and the strain that comes with caregiving and chronic illness.
She trained at Fordham University for both undergraduate and graduate social work studies and began her career in a community mental health setting. Early on she moved into supervisory roles and later established a private practice. That background means she has experience across clinics and outpatient settings and with varied life challenges.
In sessions Patricia centers a strong working relationship. She helps people identify practical goals and then uses conversational, skills-based work to pursue them. She blends psychodynamic ideas with structured methods to help people notice patterns and try different skills in everyday life.
Her approach draws on client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift thinking and behavior, and dialectical skills for emotion regulation. She also uses emotionally-focused and psychodynamic thinking when exploring attachment and relationship patterns.
Patricia offers therapy in English and Spanish. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session so she can learn what matters most and recommend a clear next step.
BHow sessions work
How psychodynamic and skills-based work fit into online sessions
Patricia combines psychodynamic ideas with structured, skills-focused methods. Psychodynamic work looks at long-standing relationship patterns and how past experiences affect present behavior. It can help when recurring conflicts or attachment wounds keep showing up in relationships.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing new behaviors to change how someone feels and acts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that can be useful for intense emotions, relationship strain, or burnout.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will talk through goals, symptoms, and daily life demands to find an approach that fits. The choice is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit visits into a workday, cut commuting time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid being on camera if that feels better. These practical benefits help people keep therapy as part of ordinary life while they try new skills and address relationship and emotional challenges.
