About Patricia

Patricia Van de Vyver draws on a client-centered foundation to support people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, relationship concerns, grief, trauma, and other life challenges. With five years of experience in clinical work, she emphasizes an accepting, nonjudgmental therapeutic space where exploration and self-discovery guide progress.

Background and approach

Patricia holds an LMSW, a licensed master social worker credential she uses to inform compassionate, practical care. She combines collaborative listening with evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic approaches to tailor treatment to each client's needs.

Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns including sleep difficulties, career transitions, parenting questions, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to family of origin and communication. Patricia adapts conversations and treatment plans to reflect what matters to the individual and offers flexible scheduling to accommodate clients' lives.

Based in Michigan, she provides sessions in English and offers multiple online formats so clients can choose the way that fits them best. Patricia welcomes inquiries from people ready to explore change and build skills for healthier coping and more fulfilling relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online care tailored to your needs

Patricia integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to offer clear, practical support in online sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes active listening and unconditional acceptance so clients can explore goals and values at their own pace, which can help with self-esteem, grief, and life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and developing new coping skills to address anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Patricia collaborates with each client to select or combine methods that match their goals, preferences, and priorities. She adjusts the style and pace of work based on feedback and observed progress so therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Patricia is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility in how they engage. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue work from home or while traveling within the same state. The format choice can also support different goals, whether practicing skills in the moment during text interactions or exploring material more deeply in a video session.
