About Patricia
Patricia Wong is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and parenting challenges. She brings 13 years of practice to each session and adapts her approach to what a person needs in the moment. Her tone can be direct and active when useful, or calm and quietly supportive when someone needs space to process.
Patricia favors practical, solution-focused work. She and the client identify current symptoms and develop small, doable steps to change patterns.
Background and approach
Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Motivational interviewing supports people who feel stuck or uncertain about change. Her work also addresses trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem, career stress, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and sexuality questions.
She listens for how past events shape present responses and helps people break repeating cycles. For those navigating non-monogamous relationships or LGBT issues, she brings awareness of these relationship structures and sexual identity topics. Sessions are organized around clear goals and practical tools rather than long explanations.
Patricia commonly combines emotion-focused conversation with skills practice to help people cope better day to day. She aims to make life feel more manageable so clients can enjoy the present more often. Patricia practices in Florida as an LCSW.
She offers multiple online formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

How her therapeutic approaches translate online
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy so the person feels heard and understood. Online sessions let the therapist reflect what the client is experiencing and tailor support around the client’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. In remote sessions this often means setting simple practice tasks between meetings and reviewing how those changes worked. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying emotions and how they shape attachment and closeness in relationships; in virtual work this can mean coaching how to name feelings and try new ways of expressing needs.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit the concern, and adjust strategies based on what works. That way the work evolves to match changing needs and preferences rather than sticking to a single method.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or times when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy schedule. These options help make regular, consistent work possible across different routines and locations.
