About Patricia

Dr. Patricia Brawley is a licensed professional counselor with 35 years of experience. She helps people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or who wake at night worrying about what to do next.

Her approach treats problems as solvable puzzles rather than permanent conditions. She welcomes talk and creative methods to find what fits each person. In sessions she blends conversation with creative activities.

That can include journaling, writing exercises, movie scenes, or reading and writing poetry.

Background and approach

She also uses mindfulness practices and dream work when helpful. These methods give different ways to notice what matters and what gets in the way. She draws on Existential Therapy to focus on meaning and choice.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help notice painful thoughts without being driven by them. Client-centered care makes the person's goals the starting point for each week. Her work also incorporates Jungian ideas about symbols and stories.

This can be useful for people thinking about life purpose, identity, or recurring patterns from family of origin. Practical coping tools for sleep, eating, mood, and addictions are offered alongside reflective work. Dr.

Brawley practices from Mississippi and works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, depression, bipolar mood concerns, and related challenges. She accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. If something is bothering you, she treats that as a good reason to start talking.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Existential Therapy helps people look at meaning, choice, and values when life feels uncertain. It focuses on what matters to the person and how to live with difficult feelings while moving toward chosen goals.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It pairs mindfulness exercises with clear actions tied to personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, non-judgmental relationship where the person's goals guide each session. This approach supports people who want a steady, respectful space to talk and try new coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and together decide what fits the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process can shift over time as new issues come up or progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy more accessible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats help people fit therapy into busy lives and reduce travel time while keeping regular contact with a licensed professional.
