About Patricia
Patricia Haversham-Brown is a licensed clinical social worker with twenty years of experience helping people navigate addictions, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and anger. She works with clients who are facing guilt, shame, isolation, panic attacks, or post-traumatic stress. Patricia speaks English and practices in New York as a New York LCSW and a New Jersey LCSW.
Her approach is straightforward and respectful. She listens closely, asks clear questions, and shapes sessions around each person’s needs.
Background and approach
Conversations move at a pace the client is comfortable with and focus on practical steps that can be used outside sessions. Patricia aims to tailor a plan with each person. That can mean setting short-term goals, working on coping skills for intense emotions, or sorting through past hurts that keep coming up.
She often focuses on forgiveness, reducing shame, and rebuilding connections when isolation has grown. Patients can expect a calm, compassionate presence that encourages honest talk. Patricia emphasizes real-world strategies you can try between meetings and checks in about what is or isn’t working.
She describes the work as a partnership where clients remain the authors of their own change. For people who feel stuck by anger, trauma, or addictive patterns, she helps identify triggers and builds practical tools to manage reactions. Getting started begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability.
What Patricia works with
Everything Patricia lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Patricia's practice.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Patricia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage intense emotions and rebuild daily functioning. One common approach focuses on skills for handling strong reactions and reducing anger, teaching practical breathing, grounding, and thought-checking exercises that can be used when tension rises. Another approach emphasizes processing traumatic experiences and their ongoing effects, helping people make sense of painful memories and reduce their impact on current life.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will work with each person to identify needs, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit those priorities. Progress is reviewed openly and methods are adjusted based on what helps most for the individual situation.
Online therapy offers a flexible way to keep regular work going. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a break, live chat lets people check in quickly, and text messaging supports brief ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping focus on skill-building and healing.
