About Patricia

Patricia "Patsy" Holden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 33 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are facing anxiety, depression, grief, and major life changes. Patsy describes a calm, faith-sensitive way of working that honors each person’s spiritual background.

She works with people managing panic and mood challenges and those coping after trauma or a traumatic brain injury. Her practice also supports caregivers who are worn down by chronic stress. Sessions emphasize building practical coping skills and restoring everyday functioning.

Patsy aims to create a non-judgmental space where people can talk through painful emotions and begin to heal. She encourages small, manageable steps toward greater resilience. That can include learning breathing or grounding techniques, changing thought patterns, and planning healthier routines.

Her work often connects emotional healing with spiritual values when clients want that included. She helps clients sort through guilt, forgiveness, and grief while keeping goals clear and practical. The tone of sessions is steady, compassionate, and focused on real-life change.

Based in Texas, Patsy brings long experience and a gentle manner to each appointment. People interested in starting therapy are invited to use the site process to match with her and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online support

Patricia Holden uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional processing. One common approach she uses is skills-based work that teaches breathing, grounding, and routine changes to reduce anxiety and manage panic symptoms. Another area of focus is trauma-informed care that helps people process distressing memories and build stability after difficult events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work she does with each person. She collaborates with clients to choose methods that match their goals, values, and daily life. That means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online work easier to fit into a busy schedule because it reduces travel time and lets them connect from where they are. Online sessions can also make it simpler to maintain regular weekly appointments and to check in more quickly between in-person visits when needed.
