Patricia Green-Metz

Hello. I have a dept of experience in various therapeutic settings health clinics; schools; and detention centers in Louisiana. Evidence based behavioral health practices are used to provide best outcomes for the clients. A non-judgmental safe space is created to provide an environment to release tension and begin management of stress and anxiety. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience and special focus with trauma survivors. For me my work is not a job but a calling to help those in need by listening and guiding you to manage your feelings.

My approach is active and reflective listening. The therapeutic approaches practiced are motivational interviewing; cognitive behavioral therapy w/ dialectical behavioral approach; solution focused brief therapy; and trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy.

In the first session detailed information about my background and experiences is provided. Your reason for seeking therapy and what outcomes you are expecting are explored. We will explore if we are a good fit to move forward for future sessions.
