About Patricia
Patricia (Trish) Nichols is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other approaches to help people feel understood and heal. She sees adults facing issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and identity concerns. Trish aims to create a respectful and affirming space where people can talk honestly about what matters to them.
Trish uses a person-centered style to listen deeply and follow each person's pace. She draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to help change unhelpful thinking and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and build action.
Background and approach
Attachment-based ideas inform her work when past relationship patterns affect current feelings and choices. Over seven years of practice in Wyoming have given her experience with a wide range of concerns. That includes workplace stress, caregiver strain, chronic illness, body image, eating and sleeping struggles, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports people navigating divorce, separation, or major life transitions. In sessions Trish combines short-term skills with longer-term reflection. She helps people notice emotional patterns, try small behavioral changes, and practice new ways of relating to themselves.
The approach is collaborative and practical, aimed at reducing distress and improving daily functioning. Trish conducts sessions in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. She practices in Wyoming as a WY LCSW and works with individuals who want steady, empathetic support while working toward clearer goals.

Online support
Emotion-focused and practical therapy online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and make sense of strong emotions and attachment needs. It can be useful when past relationship patterns keep showing up in present feelings and choices. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while making space for difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and emotional responses, offering chances to try different ways of relating and feeling safer in relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Trish works collaboratively to figure out what fits each person's goals and preferences. She combines elements from EFT, ACT, CBT, and attachment work as needed, and checks in regularly so the plan stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text are helpful for shorter check-ins, ongoing processing, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while balancing life demands.
