About Patricia

Patricia Foyder-DeVoe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience. She offers a direct, honest counseling style that centers on authentic connection. Patricia focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues around self-esteem and coping with life changes.

She draws on psychodynamic ideas while adapting methods to each person's needs. Sessions emphasize a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through what matters most to them. Patricia aims to clarify goals and teach practical tools to meet them.

Her background includes work in community mental health and private practice settings. That experience shaped her ability to respond to a wide range of problems, including trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, eating and body-image concerns, and addictions. She also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, and cancer-related challenges.

Patricia uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Psychodynamic Therapy to match interventions to each client's situation. She speaks both English and Spanish and works from New York as an LCSW.

People often come to her for help with relationship conflict, career pressure, ADHD-related struggles, and compassion fatigue. She helps clients break problems into manageable steps, build emotional awareness, and develop new coping strategies.

How key therapy methods work for online care

Client-Centered Therapy invites the therapist to follow the client's lead, offering empathy and support while the client names priorities and goals. It helps people feel heard and build motivation to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and trying out concrete skills to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Patricia will talk with each person about their situation and preferences and choose methods that fit their goals. That decision is collaborative and may change over time as needs evolve.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some formats also use less bandwidth or avoid video when someone prefers a simpler check-in. Licensed professionals can work with these approaches in remote sessions while helping clients apply skills to everyday life.
