She also has experience addressing codependency, drug and alcohol addiction, food-related issues, impulsivity, self-harm, smoking and vaping cessation, women's issues, and challenges common to young adults.

Her approach centers on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and collaboration - helping people identify goals, develop practical coping skills, and build motivation for lasting change.

She emphasizes respectful support for each person’s unique journey and offers guidance aimed at increasing resilience, emotional awareness, and everyday functioning.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Care

Patrice Levy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person's needs. She draws on trauma-informed approaches that help people process and recover from past harm by focusing on safety, stabilization, and gradual skill-building. She also employs addiction-focused counseling strategies that combine motivation and coping skills to address substance use and related behaviors, helping clients work toward healthier patterns. In addition, Patrice emphasizes skills-based work for stress and emotion regulation - practical tools to manage anxiety, improve sleep, and strengthen daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patrice collaborates with each client to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, adjusting the plan over time so the work fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, and other responsibilities, reduce travel time, and allow ongoing support between appointments. For many people, virtual sessions support consistent progress while fitting therapy into a busy life.
