About Patricia
Patricia Foyder-DeVoe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, and life transitions. She uses an emotionally focused approach alongside client-centered care to create a calm, straightforward space for people to talk about what matters most.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and take place online by video, phone, chat, or text. Her work centers on forming a warm, honest relationship where clients feel heard.
Background and approach
She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to attend to feelings in the moment and on client-centered methods to follow each person’s pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are available to teach practical coping tools when they are needed. Patricia has worked in community mental health and independent practice across many settings.
That background shaped a flexible style that blends insight with actionable steps. She helps people address mood and anxiety disorders, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, eating and body-image struggles, and caregiver stress. She also supports work on attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems, codependency, and intimacy-related concerns.
People reach out about career stress, parenting strain, grieving losses, and coping with chronic illness or major life changes. Patricia brings steady, experienced guidance to these kinds of challenges. Therapy begins by clarifying goals and choosing approaches that fit each person’s needs.
Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time and are scheduled according to therapist availability. The goal is practical progress delivered in a compassionate, down-to-earth way.

Online support
How emotional work and skills-based therapy translate online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on noticing and working with emotions in the therapy moment. It helps when strong feelings interrupt relationships, self-worth, or decision making by naming emotions and changing interactions around them. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarity. It is useful when someone needs time to sort through goals and feel understood before trying new skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and can help with anxiety, depression, and coping strategies.Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. Patricia will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they’ll try approaches and adjust the balance of emotional processing and skills training as needed so sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online formats make it easier to fit work into busy lives. Video calls let the therapist and client see each other and work with facial expression and tone. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and can be used for brief updates, homework, or coping reminders.
