More about Patricia

  • 19 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC, LCMHC, LPC, LCPC

I am a Mental Health Counselor, licensed in New York State, with over 16 years experience in the counseling field. I have had experience assisting clients with a wide range of concerns, such as, parenting issues, family/personal relationships, grief/loss, depression, anxiety, and anger management.

It is my belief therapy should be tailored to the individual client's needs, therefore I often use a combination of therapeutic techniques and approaches when providing treatment. My main goal as a therapist is to ensure a safe and supportive environment in which my client can feel comfortable exploring their individual issues. The clients I have worked with would say I am a caring and empathetic therapist who strives to develop a relationship with her clients that will allow for honesty and maximize client growth.

I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Patti is a great listener and helps guides me to make better decisions for my health, mental welfare, and life. I've been talking with her weekly for well over a year now, and I always look forward to her insight. Throughout this time, I've been struggling mentally and emotionally with the pandemic, left a job, started my own business, struggled with body dysmorphia and eating issues, and worked through deep depression. I'm truly thankful for Patti and her kindness, and for BetterHelp making good help like her's accessible. I love having her in my corner!

Patti has been such a wonderful support to me these past months as I’ve been dealing with the loss of my grandmother. This is the first loss of someone close to me and Patti has guided me and given me words of encouragement throughout everything. I not only consider Patti to be my counselor but I consider Patti to be a friend. Without the support of Patti I am not sure how I would’ve made it through these past months.

I’ve been through therapy before and felt like I was talking to a brick wall—which I can do on my own thanks. But BetterHelp matched me with the perfect therapist for where I’m at in my journey right now. Patricia makes me and my feelings feel seen and right off the bat she asked what my intentions were with starting therapy and, just starting out the gate, she created the structure I needed to understand for myself why I was here and what I wanted to get out of it. She creates the space for me to link in my budding spirituality and woo interests and I’m just so grateful that BetterHelp matched us up. I highly recommend her and her skills.

Patti is truly one of a kind. She helped me through one of the most difficult chapters in my life. She was encouraging every step of the way and made me realize that there were certain things that were just out of my control. Patti guided me as I moved on from that chapter and into a better place. Patti was there for me as I worked on some goals and she was there when I accomplished those goals. Patti made me feel extremely comfortable opening up my life to her. I am beyond excited to connect with her again. This review doesn’t even begin to do justice on just how compassionate, kind and supportive Patti is.

Patricia is amazing... I was always opposed to counseling, but a situation arose that I felt talking to a stranger would be best. It’s the best thing I’ve ever done, & wish I found it sooner. Also, I realize I may be able to help with other areas of my life. Keeping things inside & bottled up is not good. We all have problems & now I feel better that I have someone to help me through. Completely nonjudgmental...not sure I would have made through my main problem & reason for needing to talk to someone without her. I was skeptical of therapists but, not anymore.

Patti has been a blessing in my life. I have tried countless counselors and they all fell short in getting to my root issues. She’s stuck with me and has slowly and successfully started getting into the weeds and truly helping me. I’d be lost without her. She’s truly changed my life.

Patti is exactly who I needed to get me through some struggles I had been having with jealousy and feeling second best. She is extremely empathetic, but what I appreciate most about her is how down to earth she is. It feels like talking to a friend every time we talk. Her sense of humour is so refreshing to see. It has been so amazing having her support in a setting that isn't clinical like other therapists I have seen in the past. She really opened my eyes to a lot of different points of view and has helped me become a more understanding person. Every time I talk to Patti, I feel as though a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

I have seen several therapists/counsellors locally over the past decade, and while I found great help with them, I was recently really drawn to the ease and timeliness of BetterHelp's model. Not only have I found it to be very convenient (and much more affordable than in-person therapy), which helps me stay engaged and motivated to continue with my treatment, but I have also been pleasantly surprised at how comprehensive and professional my care has been. Patricia Pardy, has been phenomenally supportive, patient and kind, and her insight has already helped me so much. I likely have a long road ahead of me to get back on track to where I want to be, but already I feel so much more hopeful and able to make efforts now that I have Patti "in my corner". I couldn't have anticipated being this satisfied with a program like this at all, let alone after only a few weeks, but have now already referred 2 friends to check it out, and it will likely be my "go to"; referral for friends in need from now on.
