About Patsy

Patsy Tivitt-Moore is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Kentucky with five years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, addiction, grief, and concerns around identity and intimacy. Patsy also lists codependency and many related issues among her focus areas, and she provides support for people dealing with life changes and burnout.

Patsy’s sessions tend to be straightforward and practical. She uses a mix of client-centered methods and evidence-based therapies to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward change. Expect conversations about coping skills, setting boundaries, self-awareness, and managing intense emotions.

Her work includes tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to address unhelpful thinking patterns. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy to help people make choices that align with their values. Mindfulness and dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities.

Patsy is attentive to issues that affect LGBTQ+ people and those navigating identity questions. She helps with workplace stress, career concerns, and caregiving strain as part of her broader practice. She lists ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, and eating concerns among the issues she addresses.

People who reach out can expect a collaborative approach that focuses on clear goals and practical steps. Sessions work toward manageable changes rather than quick fixes. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches fit into online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that match those values. It often focuses on noticing difficult thoughts without getting stuck and building small, meaningful steps forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills and simple practices to manage stress and increase present-moment awareness. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their situation, goals, and preferences. Sessions can blend techniques rather than sticking to one model, and adjustments are made as goals evolve. Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten a check-in when time is tight, avoid travel, or choose a quieter setting with less background activity. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday life while focusing on skill-building, boundary-setting, and coping strategies.
