Patricia Lee

Patricia Lee is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship struggles, and parenting strain. She draws on 24 years of experience to support adults through life changes and hard moments. Patricia aims to make therapy practical and straightforward for worried people seeking relief.

Her work is collaborative and grounded in identifying client strengths. She asks questions that encourage new ways of thinking and feeling about difficult situations. Patricia explains the methods she uses and checks in about progress so people know what to expect.

Patricia's background includes mental health and medical social work in Oregon. Early in her career she worked with children, adolescents, and their parents, and later focused on adults across many concerns. She has provided individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, and group therapy in clinics and private practice.

She has spent significant time supporting adults receiving dialysis and people facing health and end-of-life challenges. That experience informs how she helps people cope when illness or caregiving stress affects daily life.

Patricia blends practical tools with mindfulness and solution-focused strategies to help clients build skills. She works with people on communication, family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, chronic pain and illness, compassion fatigue, and mood disorders. Her goal is to help people find clearer direction and more manageable next steps.

How Patricia’s approaches translate to online work

Patricia uses mindfulness-based methods to help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations so they can respond more calmly to stress and anxiety. Mindfulness can be helpful for grief, chronic pain, and feeling overwhelmed by life changes.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening, validation, and building on each person’s strengths. This approach helps people feel heard and collaborate on goals that matter to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Patricia will work together with clients to choose or adapt methods based on their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in session. That collaboration guides how skills and practices are introduced over time.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day, and the ability to maintain continuity when travel or health needs make in-person visits difficult. The therapist biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep steady progress while juggling work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
