About Patrick

Patrick Reynolds is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience, licensed in Arizona, Tennessee, and South Carolina. He works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, relationship and family concerns, and codependency. Sessions are described as collaborative and practical, focusing on what is getting in the way of daily functioning and relationships.

Patrick earned a master’s degree in counseling (MA) from Liberty University and offers clinical supervision for licensure candidates in Arizona. He has worked in mental health and addiction settings and has provided care via telehealth. His background includes military experience and work as a Christian counselor, which he says informs his perspective with diverse people and situations.

In session he uses a person-centered foundation and draws from other methods as needed. He names Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy among his approaches. The practical aim is to address immediate problems while building skills for managing stress, cravings, mood shifts, and relational conflict.

People who struggle with people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, or losing themselves in relationships may find his focus on boundaries, coping skills, and communication relevant. He also works with parenting concerns, grief, chronic health challenges, and attention-related issues. Patrick emphasizes working together to set goals and notice small, manageable changes over time.

Sessions are conducted in English and he does not accept international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on making the conversation about the client's experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is heard, and helps the client name goals and next steps. This approach helps with low self-esteem, relationship patterns, and feeling lost in others' needs.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for handling intense emotions, reducing impulsive behavior, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills are often used when stress, anger, or mood swings get in the way of daily life or relationships.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, then suggest practices and exercises. Clients and therapist decide collaboratively what to try and adjust as progress is reviewed.

There is mention of prior telehealth work in his background, but current session formats are not listed in the biography. Confirm which online or in-person options are offered before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions around work, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when a full in-person visit isn't feasible. Licensed professionals can also use goal-focused homework, skill practice between meetings, and structured check-ins to keep momentum between sessions.
