About Patricia
Patricia Robbins is a counsellor registered with BACP and NCPS and has practised for 18 years in the United Kingdom. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and ADHD, and with people handling trauma, relationship concerns and issues around self‑esteem. Her background also covers grief, sleeping and eating difficulties, career worries and compassion fatigue.
Patricia uses a pluralistic approach, combining elements of cognitive behavioural work, attachment-informed ideas and client‑centred listening. Sessions concentrate on practical conversation and finding manageable steps that fit day-to-day life. She aims to respect each person's experience and to avoid labels that feel stigmatising.
Her style is conversational and collaborative. She encourages autonomy and helps people notice what matters to them and what gets in the way. This can mean working on thinking patterns, building emotional skills, or trying small behavioural changes between sessions.
Patricia has supported people with long-term or complex concerns, including co-morbidity and chronic health issues. She also works with sexual identity and LGBT-related questions, attachment and abandonment themes, and with those coping after traumatic events.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. If someone is unsure whether to start, the first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling an initial meeting to see if the working relationship fits.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name their values and take small committed actions even when thoughts are difficult. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns through structured exercises and between-session tasks. It can help with stress, panic, sleep and concentration problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Patricia treats this as a collaboration where the client’s goals, preferences and everyday circumstances guide which methods she uses. They will review what helps and adjust the plan over time so sessions remain relevant and practical.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online meetings easier to fit around study and work, or better for shorter check-ins when time is limited. Other practical benefits include not needing to travel and being able to schedule sessions across different time zones when working with international clients. Registered or accredited professionals can use a range of methods online, and Patricia will discuss what format works best during the initial matching and first appointment.
