About Patricia
Patricia "Trish" McMillan is an Arizona licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, goal-oriented therapy. She uses clear, straightforward talk to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and low self esteem. Trish draws on seven years of recent experience delivering brief, focused approaches alongside many more years in social work practice.
Her style centers on listening first and then building a plan that fits each person's needs. She tailors sessions using tools from cognitive behavioral and solution-focused methods, and she brings mindfulness practices when helpful. Conversations are respectful, down-to-earth, and sometimes lightened with warmth or appropriate humor.
Trish commonly helps people facing relationship strain, sleep problems, anger, career transitions, and the heavy fatigue that can come from caregiving or first-responder work. She also supports those coping with cancer, aging concerns, blended family issues, and divorce or separation. Issues like guilt, shame, control problems, and codependency are included in her practice.
She approaches change in short, manageable steps and emphasizes skills that people can use between sessions. The goal is clearer thinking, better day-to-day coping, and more confidence in handling stressful situations. People who choose her often want practical strategies they can apply right away.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. Trish works in English and practices under her Arizona LCSW license.
