About Patricia
Patricia (Trish) Nichols is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wyoming with seven years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common struggles like depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and major life changes. Her practice includes support for people dealing with stress, codependency patterns, eating and sleeping concerns, and career-related strain.
Trish uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping steps. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for managing strong emotions.
Sessions focus on clear goals and skills you can use between meetings. Trish helps people practice boundaries, manage people-pleasing behavior, and respond differently to criticism or conflict. She also addresses issues like abandonment fears, body image, chronic illness stress, and caregiver strain.
Her style is client-centered, centering on what each person brings to the room and what they want to change. Trish works with individuals who are sorting identity questions, navigating relationship difficulties, or recovering from past hurt. She also supports people facing burnout, compassion fatigue, and transitions related to aging or illness.

How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck by them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small steps toward the life someone wants. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought patterns and behavior links, offering practical strategies to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early bonds affect current relationships and coping, which can help with codependency, trust issues, and repeated relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying skills, checking what helps, and adjusting the focus over time so sessions address immediate problems and longer-term patterns.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow flexible scheduling around work or caregiving. Some formats need less bandwidth or camera use, which can make check-ins shorter or simpler. Ask about current options when you schedule so you can pick the setup that matches your routine and needs.
