Patrick Fozard , LCSW

Patrick Fozard is a New York based therapist and LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) who assists people working through stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and self-esteem difficulties. He brings a decade of clinical experience to his practice, with particular focus on supporting older adults, veterans, and those confronting social anxiety, isolation, or codependency.

Fozard creates a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where individuals can examine challenging emotions such as guilt and shame and learn practical ways to cope. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people develop healthier responses to substance use, manage anger, and address post-traumatic stress. His work often centers on building resilience and developing concrete strategies to move forward after difficult life events.

Deeply committed to men's mental health, Fozard understands the particular pressures many men face and aims to help them find clearer paths to emotional well-being. He emphasizes collaborative treatment planning so each person’s goals and preferences shape the work. The overall aim is to empower clients to strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and pursue meaningful personal change.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Patrick Fozard uses evidence-based techniques tailored to the issues people bring to therapy. He offers trauma-focused approaches that help process and reduce the long-term impact of traumatic events, supporting recovery from post-traumatic stress. He also applies addiction-focused strategies that emphasize relapse prevention, coping skills, and gradual behavior change to support those managing substance use challenges. In addition, he works with skills-based methods for anxiety and anger management that teach practical tools for regulating emotions and improving daily functioning.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Patrick collaborates with each person to identify which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent care from wherever you are. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, allow for ongoing support between sessions, and enable continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult, helping people stay engaged with the therapeutic process.
