Patricia White, NCPS

Patricia White is a registered and experienced therapist with 20 years of professional practice. She holds the NCPS credential, indicating membership with the National Counselling Society in the United Kingdom, and participates in monthly clinical supervision to maintain professional standards and reflective practice.

Trained initially as an integrative therapist, Patricia has extended her expertise with additional training in trauma work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), addiction support and motivational interviewing. This broad clinical background supports her ability to adapt methods to suit each person's unique situation. Over two decades she has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, self-harm, grief and loss, and clients affected by conflict or war-related trauma.

Patricia blends elements from different therapeutic approaches to build an honest, collaborative relationship that becomes the foundation for change. She aims to help people explore the factors influencing how they feel, identify strengths and resources, and work toward goals they find meaningful. Patricia believes people are the experts in their own lives and offers steady, professional support throughout the therapeutic journey for those seeking to manage distress, rebuild after difficult experiences, or navigate life transitions.

Anyone who thinks her approach may be helpful is invited to get in touch to discuss how therapy could support their needs.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the person is supported to explore their feelings and identify their own solutions. This approach helps with issues like low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and general life transitions by prioritising the client’s perspective and strengths.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to recognise and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic and phobias, and can be delivered effectively through conversations and structured exercises during online sessions.

Trauma-Focused Therapy provides targeted support for people affected by traumatic experiences, including conflict or abuse-related trauma. It combines careful pacing with techniques to process difficult memories and build coping skills, and can be adapted for remote work by a trained, registered professional.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Patricia works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Patricia is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and access from different locations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity of care, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for each person.
