About Trish
Trish trained in clinical and counseling psychology and holds a Master of Science degree that included advanced study in trauma counseling. She has practiced in mental health settings for more than two decades and has spent extensive time working with people affected by traumatic events and complicated loss.
Her style blends several approaches so sessions match what each person needs. She uses client-centered conversation to understand a person's goals, and practical cognitive-behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior. Mindfulness and emotion-focused ideas are brought in when they help a person feel more grounded and connected to their relationships.
In sessions she helps people build on strengths and learn tools they can use between meetings. Trish emphasizes steady progress at a manageable pace rather than quick fixes. She encourages honest conversation and a collaborative plan to move past painful experiences and regain more day-to-day functioning.
Trish is based in South Carolina and works in English. If someone is ready to begin, the usual next step is to follow the site's Start Therapy flow and schedule a time to meet.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the person's perspective and building a trusting relationship. Online sessions let the therapist listen closely and follow what the client reports is most important. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses structured techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. That approach can be used online to practice new skills, set small goals, and review progress between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Online work can include learning these skills and putting them into everyday routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Then she and the client will choose and adapt methods so sessions fit personal needs and pace.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer ways to practice skills from daily life. Licensed professionals can use these benefits to help clients build coping tools and steady progress without promising a particular outcome.
