Patricia De La Garza, LPC

Patricia De La Garza approaches each person she works with using respect, curiosity, and genuine compassion. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), she tailors treatment to an individual’s needs, values, and life context, helping clients build practical skills and steady progress toward their goals.

Patricia focuses on helping adults identify the thought patterns, emotional responses, and behaviors that keep them stuck. She guides clients in learning concrete tools to manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions, with the aim of creating meaningful and lasting change.

Therapy with Patricia is collaborative by design. She views her role as walking alongside clients, offering guidance, skill-building, and encouragement as they work toward greater emotional wellbeing, confidence, and a more fulfilling life.

Evidence-Informed Techniques and Online Care

Patricia uses evidence-based cognitive strategies that help people notice and reframe unhelpful thought patterns - an approach that supports work with anxiety, depression, panic, and negative self-beliefs. She also emphasizes practical, skills-based interventions focused on emotion regulation, stress management, and behavioral changes that support improved day-to-day functioning and healthier responses to life’s challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patricia partners with each person to explore which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access support from familiar surroundings. Licensed professionals, including therapists like Patricia, can adapt evidence-based work to online formats while keeping sessions focused on practical skills and collaborative problem solving.
