About Patricia
Patricia Foyder-DeVoe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist. She combines a thoughtful, person-focused approach with practical tools to help clients handle stress, anxiety, relationship strains, and changes in life. Patricia communicates plainly and aims to make the therapy process feel understandable and manageable.
Her work centers on building an honest, trusting relationship. Patricia listens closely to what matters most to each person and then helps set clear goals. She uses psychodynamic ideas alongside other methods to tailor sessions to the individual rather than applying one fixed plan.
Many people come for help with depression, grief, trauma and abuse, or struggles with self-esteem and intimacy. She also supports those dealing with addictions, career pressures, parenting concerns, eating and body image issues, and symptoms that overlap with ADHD or bipolar experiences. Thoughts and everyday habits are part of the focus when those patterns show up in daily life.
Patricia draws on several therapeutic approaches, including client-centered work, cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior ideas, emotionally-focused techniques, and psychodynamic perspectives. She adapts interventions to fit each person’s goals and situation, giving moments of coaching alongside deeper reflection.
Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Her practice is based in New York, and she holds a New York LCSW credential. To begin, visitors follow the site’s sign-up flow to match and schedule with her according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead and helps people clarify their goals and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and everyday habits, identifying unhelpful patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and situation. That plan can change as progress is made and new needs appear.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people use therapy more consistently while working on thoughts, everyday habits, relationships, and coping skills.
