About Patricia
Patricia Borrello-Monie is a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience. She practices in Louisiana and offers calm, straightforward support for people facing sleep problems alongside stress, anxiety, grief, and depression.

She keeps sessions direct and warm. Patricia focuses on helping people talk through what's getting in the way of sleep, mood, or motivation. She works with clients on practical steps and small changes that can improve daily routines and thought patterns.
Her background includes decades in clinical settings where she helped people cope with loss, work stress, low self-esteem, and difficult life transitions. That experience informs a plainspoken approach that centers the person's goals and strengths rather than jargon or long treatment plans.
Patricia uses a mix of evidence-informed methods when they fit a person's needs. She draws on acceptance-based and cognitive strategies alongside mindful awareness and motivational techniques to help clients notice patterns and try new responses. Sessions emphasize simple tools clients can use between meetings.
People who come to Patricia can expect a steady, nonjudgmental presence. She encourages collaboration about goals, pacing, and next steps. To begin, readers can follow the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule with her according to availability.
How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes choosing actions that align with personal values to improve daily routines and reduce struggle with sleep and mood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing small changes that can improve sleep, anxiety, and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and support calmer evenings.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Patricia will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, pace, and preferences. She combines approaches when that makes sense, and checks in regularly to adjust methods based on how someone is responding.
Practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and being able to fit sessions into a busy day. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to follow up on sleep plans, try brief behavioral experiments between sessions, and maintain continuity when life gets hectic. Licensed professionals can use these approaches to help clients build routines, practice new habits, and track small gains toward better rest.
