Getting to know Dr. Patricia Leavy

The provider is a licensed Provisional Psychologist practicing in the state of FL With a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, dual Masters in Developmental and Clinical Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Clinical and Health Psychology, all from the University of Florida, I bring a breadth and depth of knowledge to my psychological practice in Fernandina Beach, Florida. I cater to clients aged 18 and up, addressing a spectrum of emotional and psychological issues, through both telehealth and in-person sessions. My 30-year long practice has exposed me to a plethora of situations. Ranging from child behavior management, bullying, anxiety, and depression, to familial and friendly relationships, I have developed a vast set of skills to help my clients tackle these challenges. I also specialize in family and parenting aspects, marriage and divorce dilemmas, elder care, caregiver burnout, and grief. Additionally, I have expertise in dealing with issues specific to active military personnel and their families, as well as the veterans community. My extensive experience does not limit me to just one demographic - I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, and with college students as well. My passion lies in aiding others to overcome obstacles, enabling them to fully embrace life. I adopt various therapeutic approaches to suit the individual needs of my clients. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Stress Reduction, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Be it anxiety, depression, chronic illness, or chronic pain, I am well-equipped to guide you through these hardships. Although I have lived in various states, I regard myself a true Floridian. During my leisure time, I revel in reading, listening to music, attending theatre productions, exploring new parts of the U.S., and cherishing moments with my loved ones.
