About Patricia

Patricia Foyder-DeVoe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of clinical experience who blends psychodynamic insight with practical, skills-based methods.

Background and approach

She emphasizes authenticity and a collaborative therapeutic relationship, helping people explore patterns that underlie current struggles while teaching tools to manage symptoms and make concrete changes. Patricia frames her work around each client’s goals and adapts methods from psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and emotion-focused approaches to fit individual needs.

Working from New York, Patricia has supported clients through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief and trauma, eating and body image issues, addictions, caregiving stress, and life transitions. She also lists experience with ADHD, bipolar concerns, attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and pain, and a range of family and communication challenges.

Sessions are available in English and Spanish, and Patricia draws on long experience supervising and providing psychotherapy in community and independent practice settings. Her style aims to create a nonjudgmental space where clients can clarify what they want to change, understand recurring patterns, and learn strategies for coping and growth.

Patricia uses an integrative stance, combining depth-oriented exploration with practical interventions to support clients through immediate crises and longer-term development.

Integrative Approaches and Flexible Online Care



Patricia often blends psychodynamic therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques to address both underlying patterns and present-day symptoms. Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and relationships, which can be helpful for long-standing relational difficulties and attachment concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and some aspects of ADHD-related challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia works with each client to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in session, adjusting methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the person’s changing needs.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule regular sessions around work, family, or mobility constraints and to continue therapy through life transitions. The combination of an integrative therapeutic approach and multiple online formats helps clients access ongoing care that fits their day-to-day lives.
