Patrick Reynolds, LPC

Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with two decades of experience helping people face painful life changes. He uses a person-centered way of working that aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through hard problems. Patrick draws on practical tools to help with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, addiction, and other struggles. He earned a master’s degree in counseling and holds LPC credentials in Arizona and South Carolina. Over 20 years he has worked with children, adolescents, and adults in mental health and addiction settings, and he has delivered services via telehealth. His background includes military experience and work as a Christian counselor, which shape his perspective when supporting diverse needs. Patrick blends client-centered practices with elements from dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused work, and trauma-focused methods. In sessions he listens first, then helps people set small goals and try practical steps that fit their life. He emphasizes walking alongside clients rather than giving quick fixes. He also provides clinical supervision to counseling candidates seeking licensure in Arizona. That supervisory role reflects his interest in mentoring others as they develop clinical skills. People who come to Patrick often want help with relationship problems, parenting stress, caregiver strain, aging concerns, or mood and trauma-related issues. He focuses on working collaboratively to build coping skills and clearer next steps. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting a person where they are. Online or in person this approach helps people feel heard and then decide practical next steps with the therapist. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, useful for anxiety, anger, and mood instability. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their goals and strengthen their motivation for change, which is often helpful for addiction, habit change, or readiness to tackle life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying different strategies and adjusting plans based on what helps most.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Some people prefer shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or audio-only sessions if bandwidth is limited. Because session formats are not listed here, confirm the current online and in-person options before booking so arrangements match your routine and needs.
