About Patricia

Patricia Olachea Haessly is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, person-first care aimed at helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood challenges, and the everyday strains of parenting and work. Patricia uses straightforward conversation and gentle guidance.

Sessions focus on skills you can use at home and ways to change unhelpful patterns. She draws on therapeutic approaches that center on relationships, present thinking, and body-based processing to address trauma and long-standing emotional pain.

Background and approach

She often supports people navigating grief, bipolar mood shifts, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the practical side of sleeping or concentration problems. ADHD is included among the areas she helps with, along with self-esteem and career strain. Patricia also works with immigration-related stress and multicultural issues that affect daily life.

Patricia mixes talking therapies with mindfulness and movement through memories when needed. Her practice pays attention to attachment history, how it shapes today’s relationships, and how to build healthier patterns going forward. She aims to help people find clearer routines and kinder self-talk.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish from Texas. The approach is collaborative - she will outline options and help people choose what fits their needs and goals. Over time, work in therapy is paced to match what each person can manage and change.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Patricia commonly combines Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her online practice. Attachment work focuses on how early relationships shape current reactions and relationships, and it helps people develop safer ways of relating. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns and cope with anxiety or mood swings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Patricia will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to emphasize relationship patterns, thought-based skill building, mindfulness practices, or a mix of techniques tailored to current needs.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer short, frequent touchpoints for skills practice and between-session support. These options help fit therapy into work, school, or family schedules while keeping focus on progress and goal-setting.
