About Tricia
Tricia Walsh is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with ten years of practice in Florida. She focuses on everyday struggles like anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and relationship concerns. Tricia emphasizes a warm, collaborative bond with each person she sees and aims to help clients set and reach realistic goals.
Her approach centers on practical steps and steady support. She helps people notice how past experiences shape present feelings and behaviors. Sessions often include talking through difficult moments, learning new coping skills, and building clearer communication patterns.
Tricia draws on several approaches to match what each person needs. She uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and to clarify personal values. She also brings ideas from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when emotion regulation and relationship patterns are primary concerns.
Her work includes helping people coping with trauma, chronic illness, caregiving stress, addictions, and identity questions linked to LGBT concerns. She also supports clients dealing with ADHD, bipolar disorder, and career or life transitions. The focus is on practical tools and realistic next steps that fit everyday life.
People who choose Tricia can expect an engaged, respectful partner who listens first and then helps craft a plan. She encourages self-compassion and steady progress rather than quick fixes. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed actions toward those values while accepting hard thoughts and feelings. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with simple experiments or behavior changes, which can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and improve day-to-day coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skill-building around emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can help when emotions feel overwhelming.Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods seem most useful based on goals, personality, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That collaboration can change over time as needs shift.
Session logistics need confirmation because formats are not specified in the biography. Before booking, check which remote or in-person options are currently available. Many people find that online work makes it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduces travel time, and allows focused check-ins during a lunch break or between commitments. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when less visual focus is needed, and video sessions allow face-to-face interaction when helpful. Confirm current session options before scheduling to choose what fits daily life best.
