About Patricia

Dr. Patricia Brawley helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, and major life changes. She also supports concerns like addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and mood disorders.

Dr. Brawley has 35 years of experience and works from Mississippi. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who blends practical conversation with creative tools.

Her approach treats each concern like a puzzle to solve.

Background and approach

She listens for clues in daily life, dreams, and personal stories. Clients use writing, movies, and poetry to make therapy more personal. This often helps ideas come into focus faster than talk alone.

She draws on Jungian therapy to look at symbols and inner stories that repeat over time. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness techniques help people notice what matters to them and take small, steady steps. Client-centered work keeps the pace guided by the client’s priorities.

Sessions can include journaling, dream reflection, guided meditation, and creative assignments. Sometimes the work is quiet and reflective. Other times it is active and problem solving.

The overall aim is practical change that fits someone’s life and values. Dr. Brawley is comfortable helping people through grief, trauma, first responder and veteran concerns, and process addictions.

She also addresses body image, codependency, life purpose, aging issues, and seasonal affective disorder. If a worry wakes someone at night, she treats that worry as a place to begin.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Jungian therapy looks at the stories and symbols that show up in dreams, art, and day-to-day life. Online sessions can include discussion of dreams, guided imaginative exercises, and sharing of creative work to illuminate repeating patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches simple skills to notice thoughts and act on what matters most; online work can focus on short experiential exercises, values clarification, and small behavioral steps. Client-centered therapy centers on listening and the therapeutic relationship, offering a steady, nonjudgmental space for people to speak and be heard during video or phone sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level. That might mean using creative assignments one week, mindfulness practice the next, or tending to dreams and life choices over time.

Online options - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video lets people connect face to face for longer sessions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging can support shorter reflections, homework check-ins, or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These choices help people keep momentum and access consistent care from wherever they are.
