About Patsy

Patsy Tivitt-Moore is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing midlife questions and other major life changes. She works with issues like anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, grief, addiction, and questions about identity. Patsy creates a respectful, affirming space where people can talk honestly about what is hard for them.

She focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. That might include building routines to manage stress, practicing new ways to handle conflict, or skills to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts. Sessions are collaborative and grounded in what the client wants to achieve.

Her approach draws on several well-known therapies, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Patsy uses these methods to help people notice patterns, try small experiments, and make choices that fit their values. She also brings techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness when they suit a person's goals.

Patsy has five years of clinical experience as an LCSW in Kentucky. She often supports LGBTQ people and those dealing with workplace stress, identity questions, or significant life transitions. Her work includes attention to relationship concerns, ADHD, trauma, and caregiver stress.

People who see Patsy can expect a calm, nonjudgmental conversation that focuses on clear next steps. To begin, readers should use the site's Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire.

Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and Patsy schedules with clients based on availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and take concrete steps toward those values. It often uses short exercises and real-life experiments to test new behaviors and reduce stuck patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small changes in behavior to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patsy will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can be revisited as needs change during therapy.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it simpler to continue work between sessions and practice skills in everyday settings. Licensed professionals tailor session pace and focus to match each person's life and goals, helping therapy feel useful and practical.
