About Patricia

Patricia Haversham-Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York and New Jersey with 20 years of experience. She works with people who are coping with addictions, LGBT issues, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and problems with anger.

Patricia focuses on clear, practical conversations. She helps people name what is happening and make step-by-step plans to change unhelpful patterns. Sessions tend to be straightforward and focused on what can be done between meetings as well as during them.

She also addresses feelings such as guilt, shame, isolation, and the fallout from panic attacks or post-traumatic stress. That can mean learning ways to manage intense feelings and noticing the small choices that affect day-to-day life. Patricia uses methods that are grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and aims for work that is concrete and actionable.

Her background includes two decades of clinical practice across New York and New Jersey settings. Over that time she has helped people untangle relationship patterns, reduce risky behavior tied to addiction, and restore more predictable emotional responses after trauma.

People who come for help can expect direct problem-solving, prioritized goals, and homework or practice between sessions. To begin, readers should confirm the current session options before booking and follow the site's matching and scheduling steps.

BHow sessions work

How evidence-based techniques adapt to online care

Patricia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing behavior and managing intense emotions. One common method helps people identify triggers, test new responses, and build alternative habits that reduce risky behavior and addiction urges. Another approach focuses on skills for handling panic, intrusive memories, and high arousal after trauma, teaching grounding and gradual exposure strategies so reactions become less overwhelming.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, symptoms, and daily routines to decide which methods to try first. Patricia adjusts plans as progress is tracked and as practical barriers emerge, so the work stays useful for the client's life and responsibilities.

Confirm the current session options before booking to learn which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone keep a regular meeting pattern even when routines change. The therapist will help arrange session length and pacing to match the client's needs and day-to-day constraints.
