Patricia Jackson Wolfe

Patricia Jackson Wolfe

Therapist

Virtual • Mississippi


I am a licensed therapist with a Doctorate in Professional Counseling from Mississippi College and nearly 15 years of experience supporting individuals, families, children, and adolescents in both individual and group therapy settings. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of sitting with people through some of their most difficult and transformative moments, and I bring empathy, patience, and genuine care to every session I show up for.

My clinical experience spans a broad range of presenting concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and behavioral health issues. I have worked with clients across a wide variety of ages, backgrounds, and life circumstances, and that breadth of experience has shaped me into a flexible, responsive clinician who understands that no two people are alike. I do not arrive with a one-size-fits-all plan. I arrive ready to listen, to understand, and to meet each person exactly where they are.

While I welcome clients navigating all kinds of challenges, two populations are especially close to my heart. The first is children and adolescents who are struggling with behavioral problems. I understand how exhausting and frightening it can feel for a young person and their family when things seem out of control, and I find deep meaning in helping young people and the adults who love them find steadier ground. The second is women who have experienced any type of trauma and are working through its lasting effects. Trauma reshapes the way a person sees themselves and the world around them, and I am deeply committed to helping women reclaim their strength, their voice, and their hope for the future.

I believe healing is possible for everyone, and I consider it an honor to be trusted as part of that journey.

Therapist

Virtual • Mississippi


For more than 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they work toward healing, growth, and change. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor, and Substance Abuse Professional, I bring both deep clinical knowledge and a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to therapy.

I specialize in helping clients navigate life’s most personal challenges—including relationship and intimacy concerns, life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, and mental health struggles. I also provide substance abuse treatment, DOT/SAP evaluations, and recovery support using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Reality Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, the Duluth Model, and the Matrix Model.

I have a special commitment to serving Black communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, people living with HIV, re-entry populations, sex workers, and youth facing challenges. I understand how personal, cultural, and systemic factors shape each person’s story, and I create a safe, affirming space where clients feel truly seen and heard.

In our sessions, you can expect a respectful, judgment-free environment where your voice matters. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—we’ll set goals together, explore what’s holding you back, and develop practical strategies you can use in daily life a more fulfilling life. Whether you’re seeking support for a specific issue or simply want to invest in your personal growth, I’m here to help you take that next step.
