About Patricia
Patricia Greer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with about 20 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, struggling with addiction, or navigating major life changes. Patricia also addresses relationship and family issues, sleep problems, parenting concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and related challenges.
Patricia uses straightforward, practical conversations. Sessions focus on concrete skills for managing stress, improving communication, and reducing substance use. She draws on client-centered work to follow a person's priorities, and on cognitive-behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and the Gottman Method when those fit a person's needs. That can look like learning emotion regulation skills, practicing present-moment attention, or working on the way partners handle conflict. The emphasis is on small, usable steps rather than theory-heavy explanations.
Patricia often helps people develop assertiveness and problem-solving skills. She offers practical tools for anger management, coping after loss or trauma, and dealing with family-of-origin issues. Sessions aim to build routines that make day-to-day life more manageable.
Her approach is direct and grounded. People who want clear strategies and active collaboration typically find this style helpful. Patricia provides services in English and practices in North Carolina.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and experience. Online sessions using this approach center on what matters most to the client and let the therapist follow the client's lead while offering practical feedback. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) aims to identify unhelpful thoughts and shift behaviors. In an online setting CBT can include practicing new skills during or between visits and reviewing real-life homework together. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Delivered remotely, DBT techniques can be taught and practiced in-session while the therapist helps plan ways to use them during daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match current needs, goals, and preferences. That means checking in early about which techniques are helpful and adjusting the plan over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find remote visits convenient for using learned skills between sessions and for staying consistent with appointments without rearranging large parts of their day.
