About Patricia
Dr. Patricia Brawley is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 35 years of experience in Mississippi. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, and concerns such as codependency and body image. Her practice includes attention to mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and life transitions.
Patricia describes therapy as a practical investigation. She helps people gather the clues in their life story and put them together to see patterns and options. Sessions can include talking, writing, and creative exercises that make the work feel concrete rather than abstract.
Her methods draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice what matters to them and act in line with values. Client-centered principles guide sessions so the person’s priorities steer the process. She also uses Jungian and existential ideas when exploring meaning, dreams, and personal symbols.
Practical tools often show up in sessions. Patricia uses journaling prompts, poetry, movie examples, and guided mindfulness practices to help people practice new responses between sessions. She describes these tools as ways to test small changes and learn from results.
People looking for support are asked to consider any problem that keeps recurring or wakes them at night. Patricia emphasizes that even small issues matter and that the work can be focused on clear goals, such as better boundaries, fewer compulsive behaviors, or steadier mood regulation.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, committed actions toward them. Online sessions can use values exercises and behavioral experiments to test changes between meetings. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s perspective and pacing, with the therapist following what matters most and reflecting it back in ways that build practical insight.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking results, and adjusting plans together rather than assuming one method will be best from the start.
The original profile does not specify which session formats are used for online work, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. They also make it possible to practice real-life exercises between sessions and bring notes, poems, or journal entries into the conversation for review.
