About Patricia
Patricia (Patty) Earl is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 29 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, grief, and life changes. Patty also supports those facing trauma, addiction, eating concerns, mood disorders, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Patty listens carefully and responds in a calm, grounded way. Sessions focus on real skills and straightforward conversation. She blends evidence-based tools with attention to how people feel in their bodies.
Background and approach
Her background includes long experience in counseling and work with trauma and grief. Patty draws from Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work focused on each person’s needs. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach coping skills and change unhelpful patterns.
Mindfulness and elements of existential thinking are part of her approach when they fit the client. This can mean short mindfulness exercises, values work, or practical behavior changes. Patty aims to help people find clearer choices and gentler ways to respond under stress.
She practices in Louisiana and offers sessions in English. Patty has worked with people affected by cancer, hospice and end-of-life concerns, HIV/AIDS, and post-traumatic stress, and she brings that experience into everyday counseling work.

Approaches that fit online counseling
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and tailoring the work to each person. It helps people feel heard and builds a trusting space to try new ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and to reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then use techniques that match those needs. That collaborative process means skills, mindfulness, or values-based exercises can be introduced as they make sense for the person.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you meet face to face when you want that connection. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter check-ins, tracking skill practice, or when you need brief support between sessions.
