About Patricia

Patricia Devlin is a counsellor who helps people working through depression and related emotional struggles. She offers a calm, thoughtful presence and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and useful for everyday life. Patricia draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape present feelings and reactions.

She pays particular attention to attachment patterns - the ways early relationships can influence trust, closeness and fear of abandonment in adult life.

Background and approach

In conversation she helps people notice repeating habits that cause pain and gently tests new ways of relating. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person. Patricia listens for the themes that keep coming up, then helps name them and try small changes.

She focuses on building understanding first, then practical next steps people can take between meetings to feel steadier day to day. Her work covers relationship difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, and issues that come from feeling isolated or empty. Other areas she attends to include body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and codependency, among others.

Patricia is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years of professional experience working with adults from a range of backgrounds across the United Kingdom. Her practice uses straightforward conversation and targeted reflection to help people move forward.

Online support

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting. Online sessions can be used to notice these patterns in real time and practise different responses in the safety of regular meetings. Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on links between past experiences and present feelings, helping people uncover repeating themes and gain clearer understanding of their reactions.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which ideas to focus on, and will adapt methods to fit their goals and preferences. Sessions can mix short-term problem work with longer reflection when that suits the client.

Practical online benefits include choice of video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit varied routines. Video is useful for a fuller conversational flow, phone calls suit low-bandwidth situations or when being off-camera feels easier, and messaging or live chat can be helpful for brief check-ins or when someone needs flexibility during a busy day. These options make it easier to attend regular meetings and keep therapeutic progress moving forward.
