Patricia Klepinger, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Patricia

Patricia Klepinger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. She writes plainly and listens carefully so clients can talk about what matters most. Patricia values steady, respectful conversations that help people sort through immediate problems and next steps.

Patricia draws on three years as a licensed counselor along with eight years of experience as a professional school counselor.

Background and approach

That background informs how she guides people through life changes, confidence and motivation challenges, and difficult feelings like guilt or shame. She uses practical tools rather than jargon and keeps the work grounded in daily life. In sessions Patricia often blends approaches to match each person's needs.

She uses techniques that help change unhelpful thoughts and notice what matters most. She also focuses on emotions and on clear, manageable goals to move forward. Patricia aims to build a safe, respectful space where people can name what they’re facing and try helpful steps.

She pays attention to patterns that keep problems going and to small changes that make life feel easier. Her tone is calm and direct, with an emphasis on practical progress. If someone is ready to start, Patricia asks a few questions to understand priorities and then works with them to set clear, achievable goals.

The pace and tools are adjusted as the work unfolds so clients can find what helps them most.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck from painful emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches skills to change patterns that cause distress. It is practical for mood problems, panic, and managing repetitive worries. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the process, offering empathic listening so someone can explore feelings and find their own solutions. This approach supports self-esteem and coping with life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will listen to your goals and preferences and recommend techniques that seem to fit. The plan can change as you learn what helps most, and the work often mixes methods to address immediate problems and longer-term growth.

Online therapy with Patricia is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings. Many people find that having different formats available helps them stay consistent and try the kind of contact that works for their routine.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
