Tricia Walsh, LCSW

Tricia Walsh is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. She practices in Florida and emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as the starting point for change. Tricia works to create a supportive space where people can name goals and build practical strategies.

In sessions she partners with each person to develop steps toward those goals. That often means learning ways to manage overwhelming feelings, address relationship or intimacy concerns, and cope with medical issues like chronic illness or cancer. She also helps people navigate career shifts, grief, and the strain of caregiving.

Tricia draws from several well-known approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. She uses these methods to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and strengthen emotional connection in relationships. The focus is on clear, doable tools rather than abstract theory.

She is experienced supporting people who identify as LGBT and those dealing with addiction, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. Tricia also addresses attachment issues, body image, and blended family concerns among other focus areas.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions are aimed at helping people build skills they can use between meetings. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.

Approaches that guide online work and goal setting

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small committed steps toward them. It teaches ways to notice difficult thoughts and still move in the direction that matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It uses simple, practical exercises you can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tricia will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That process is collaborative - she offers options and adjusts based on what helps the client make progress.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can help people fit sessions into busy lives by reducing travel time and making it easier to schedule around work or caregiving. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a brief update is enough, and enable sessions without being on camera if that feels better. Licensed professionals often use these practical options to keep therapy consistent with everyday routines and responsibilities.
