About Patricia
Patricia Brickman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Washington. She has worked as a therapist for three years and draws on broader experience in inpatient psychiatric care, residential eating-disorder treatment, and outpatient community clinics.
Patricia mainly sees adults ages 18 to 35. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem and body image struggles, and parenting or postpartum stress. She also supports people facing trauma, grief, addiction-related issues, and major life changes.
Her style is client-centered and trauma-informed. That means sessions focus on each person's goals and pace, while paying attention to how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions. She often uses emotion-focused work to help people name and process strong feelings.
Patricia also draws on skills from dialectical behavior therapy and cognitive behavioral concepts to teach coping tools and change patterns that cause distress. She blends these approaches with attention to attachment and relationship patterns when those issues come up.
Her background includes a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Northwest University in Kirkland, Washington, earned in 2018. Before starting clinical therapy work she spent time in several treatment settings, which informs her understanding of more acute and longer-term care paths.
