About Patricia
Patricia Major is an LCSW with ten years of clinical experience based in Oklahoma. She works with people managing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and other life changes. Patricia also addresses addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, career issues, and ADHD.
She uses clear, practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on small, testable changes rather than vague promises. Patricia draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy alongside attachment-informed and client-centered approaches.
In a typical session she helps clients name a problem, try a different response, and review what happened. She teaches simple skills such as thought records, behavioral experiments, and values-based actions. Mindfulness exercises are used when they fit the client's goals.
Patricia has particular experience with relationship patterns and attachment concerns. She works with people dealing with abandonment, commitment worries, blended family stress, communication problems, and codependency. She also supports caregivers, older adults facing geriatric issues, and those coping with separation or domestic violence consequences.
Practical steps are emphasized over lengthy theory. Clients looking for concrete ways to manage mood, build communication skills, or change persistent habits will find a structured approach.

How cognitive and acceptance approaches apply to online work
CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative behaviors. It uses concrete tools like thought records and behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change patterns that get in the way of daily life.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult feelings are present. It supports living more consistently with what matters, which can be useful for depression, worry, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and communication, often helping with intimacy and repeated relationship issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Patricia will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and personal preferences rather than insisting on one technique. Sessions can combine CBT exercises, ACT values work, and attachment-informed conversations as appropriate.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography did not specify formats. When arranged, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. The online setting also supports practicing skills in real-life situations and reviewing what did or did not work between sessions.
