About Patrice
Patrice Carroll is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Massachusetts with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, eating concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, and related issues. Patrice sees therapy as a collaborative process and invites people to bring the concerns they want to address.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Client-Centered Therapy to help people notice and name feelings that are often hard to identify. Sessions can include mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing techniques to support practical change. Patrice emphasizes helping people recognize strengths they already have and apply them to everyday problems.
Her background includes work with caregiving stress, aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, domestic violence, traumatic brain injury, obsessive and compulsive concerns, self-harm, and eating-related issues. She also supports people dealing with workplace stress, compassion fatigue, hoarding, intellectual disability, trichotillomania, and young adult challenges.
Patrice offers sessions in ways intended to fit a client's routine, and the initial step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. She works in English and is based in Massachusetts. Payment details vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
People considering therapy can expect straightforward, practical conversation and collaborative planning. Patrice aims to help clients set clear goals, try small changes between sessions, and track what helps most over time.
How Patrice’s approaches fit with online sessions
Patrice uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help people notice and name emotions that influence behavior and relationships. EFT often focuses on moments of strong feeling and helps people understand how those feelings shape reactions.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take practical steps toward goals, and Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations guided by the client's priorities. Mindfulness practices may be used to build awareness of present-moment experience and reduce reactivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patrice will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to emphasize. This collaborative planning helps set clear, manageable steps and lets therapy shift if different support is needed.
Session formats should be confirmed before booking, since formats were not specified in the source biography. Ask which session types are currently offered when you schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time so people can work therapy into work breaks or caregiving schedules.
