About Patrick

Patrick Currie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania who brings two decades of clinical experience to his work. He blends cognitive behavioral techniques with mindfulness and acceptance-oriented strategies to help clients build awareness, develop practical coping skills, and take steps toward meaningful change.

Background and approach

Patrick focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, self-esteem, bipolar mood challenges, and career or life-transition issues. His background includes work across clinical, educational, and correctional settings where he provided individual counseling, led psychoeducational groups, and delivered workshops on stress management, relapse prevention, anger management, and healthy decision making.

Patrick also addresses family of origin issues, life purpose and midlife concerns, money and financial issues, multicultural matters, and young adult challenges. He aims for a supportive, empowering therapy style that helps clients identify strengths, build resilience, and pursue more authentic and fulfilling lives.

Using CBT and Acceptance Strategies in Online Care

Patrick integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work, offering concrete tools and perspective shifts that target unhelpful thinking patterns, emotional avoidance, and roadblocks to valued action. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that contribute to symptoms, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward what matters.

Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore goals, preferences, and priorities, and then tailor interventions based on what seems most helpful. This cooperative stance allows adjustments as progress unfolds and as new challenges arise.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life changes and to choose a format that supports active skills practice and ongoing engagement with therapy.
