Patricia Garcia, LPC — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Patricia!

I specialize in providing client-centered, empathetic care using evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support individuals, families, and children. My focus is on empowering clients to achieve their personal goals and improve their overall well-being.

My focus

I work with adolescents, adults, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress-related disorders, life transitions, relationship issues, and emotional dysregulation. My goal is to provide a supportive and empowering environment where you can work towards your personal goals and improve your overall well-being.

My approach

My therapeutic approach is integrative, combining evidence-based modalities to meet your unique needs. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. I create a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment where you feel comfortable expressing yourself. Working with me feels like a partnership; I listen actively and provide feedback that is compassionate and constructive.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist began when I was a teenager. After serving in positions related to community development and owning businesses in the health and wellness industry, I decided to pursue private practice where I could help people improve their mental health and navigate life's challenges.

My goals for you

I take a collaborative and individualized approach to setting goals. We begin by identifying your personal values, strengths, and areas of concern. Together, we develop specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals that align with your overall well-being and long-term aspirations.

Our first session

During the first session, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where we focus on getting to know each other. I will ask about your background, current concerns, and goals for therapy. This session is also an opportunity for you to ask questions about the therapeutic process and my approach.
