About Patricia

Patricia (Patty) Earl is an LPC with nearly three decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and grief. She also supports those coping with life changes, addiction, eating concerns, parenting stress, and mood disorders. Patty brings a calm, steady presence and listens closely to each person’s story.

Patty blends practical talk with attention to how feelings show up in the body. She draws on existential ideas to help people find meaning during hard times.

Background and approach

She also uses client-centered methods to make sure sessions follow the person’s pace and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her approach when changing unhelpful thinking and behavior is needed. She uses mindfulness skills to help people notice emotions and reduce reactivity.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are added when people need tools for regulating strong feelings. Her work often focuses on trauma and post-traumatic stress, grief and hospice-related concerns, and challenges related to chronic illness such as cancer or HIV/AIDS. She also addresses intimacy, self-esteem, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue for caregivers.

Patty practices in Louisiana and works with people by phone, video, live chat, and text messaging. She has 29 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor and speaks English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair people with the right therapist and the schedule is set afterward.

Approaches for Meaning, Skills, and Emotional Balance

Patty often combines Existential Therapy with Client-Centered Therapy to help people find meaning and direction in difficult moments. Existential work looks at values, choices, and life purpose to help clarify what matters. Client-centered work focuses on the person’s experience and moves at their pace so goals come from the individual rather than the clinician.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when people need concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps break cycles of worry, low mood, and avoidance by teaching practical exercises and homework that can be tried between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and adapt methods over time. That way the work stays relevant and useful instead of forcing a single style.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different situations. Video works well for deeper conversations and interactive work. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text are helpful for quick touches, journaling-style exchanges, or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping continuity of care.
