About Patricia
Patricia Klepinger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, panic attacks, and the fallout from trauma. She uses straightforward conversation to help clients name what feels overwhelming and to find small, practical steps forward. Her tone is calm and encouraging, aimed at people who are nervous about starting therapy.
Patricia draws on three years as an LPC plus eight years of experience as a professional school counselor. She focuses on everyday problems like parenting strain, low self-esteem, guilt, and feeling isolated. She also supports people working through life changes, mood struggles, and relationship wounds such as abandonment or attachment concerns.
In sessions she listens first and adapts methods to each person. You can expect clear goals and concrete skills to try between meetings. Patricia uses methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values, and Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation respectful and focused on your priorities.
Her work is practical and goal-oriented while staying compassionate. She helps people manage panic episodes, build coping strategies, and strengthen self-compassion. Patricia encourages small steps and celebrates progress as it happens.
If you want to begin, she asks that you describe your main concern so sessions can start with a clear plan. The first meetings typically focus on safety, immediate coping, and setting achievable next steps.
How therapy approaches guide online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that align with those values. It is often used for anxiety, avoidance, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which can be helpful for panic attacks and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the client's experience, offering empathy and nonjudgmental listening to help people find their own answers.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, everyday routines, and what has or hasn't helped before. From there she will suggest methods to try and adjust them based on how they feel in practice.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, appointments can be scheduled around work or school, and shorter check-ins can help maintain momentum between longer sessions. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about what session length and rhythm will work best for your schedule and needs.
