Hi! I'm Patrick Turbiville (he/they), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Supervisor serving adults in Texas, Colorado, Florida & South Carolina, and I love being a therapist. Individual therapy can be enhanced by participating in group therapy concurrently or after graduation from individual therapy. For more about how I do individual therapy, keep reading. :)

I work with lots of different people:

I help with loads of different topics:

• Family, friend & intimate relationship issues

I like my sessions to feel like a casual (and sometimes fun) conversation, while also integrating ideas & interventions from several therapeutic frameworks, including:

• Person-Centered Therapy focuses on a client's  inherent strengths and the therapist's unconditional positive regard for the client.
• A Systems Perspective considers the impact of community, culture, society, history, politics, and oppressive forces on well-being.
• Narrative Therapy fleshes out the client's full life story in a new, empowering way that challenges negative beliefs about the self.
• Cognitive Therapy improves thinking by encouraging replacement of less true, unhelpful thoughts with more true, helpful thoughts.
• A Depth-Orientation peels away numerous layers of thoughts, beliefs, and experiences in search of root causes of and unconscious influences over important problems.
• Internal Family Systems explores relationships between parts of the self, promoting internal harmony, courage, calm, creativity, confidence, and clarity.
• Existential Therapy examines meaning, being, isolation, freedom, responsibility, and death to relieve existential despair and dread.
• Attachment-Based Therapy reveals effects of early connections on present-day relationships while engaging a client in self-parenting.
• Motivational Interviewing engages the client by evoking reactions to specific problems in order to discern the best plan for moving forward.
• Mindfulness-Based Therapy assists clients in attuning to sensations from the mind and body in support of improved awareness and coping.
• Solution-Focused Therapy answers specialized questions to determine immediate actions for resolving specific problems.
• and various other bits and pieces from here and there...
