Patricia Major , LCSW

Patricia Major is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier and more in control. Her approach aims to be warm and straightforward so clients know what to expect.

Patricia draws on ten years of experience working with life transitions and parenting questions. She pays attention to how attachment and past losses shape current relationships. That background helps when someone is dealing with breakup, divorce, or problems with intimacy.

In sessions she uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people get clearer about what matters to them. Mindfulness practices are offered as simple exercises to reduce stress and improve sleep.

Patricia takes a client-centered stance, which means she listens first and tailors plans to each person. She often blends approaches so the work fits the client’s goals and pace. This makes it easier to address things like anger, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, or caregiver stress.

She practices in Oklahoma and works with adults on issues that include parenting, career changes, grief, and compassion fatigue. Sessions aim to produce small, usable changes that build over time. Patricia supports people who want steady guidance and practical strategies for everyday struggles.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Patricia commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and clarifies personal values to guide action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression.

She treats approach selection as a team effort. In the first sessions she listens to goals and tries small techniques to see what fits. Then she and the client adjust methods so the work matches needs, whether that means focusing on relationships, parenting stress, sleep issues, or grief.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow full conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or a busy schedule.
