Hello, my name is Paula. I am a licensed mental health counselor, utilizing a variety of evidenced based strategies and techniques to help you with issues that may be hindering you from functioning at your full potential. I am a compassionate therapist and I try to create a therapeutic atmosphere built on unconditional positive regard, non judgement, and respect. I have experience working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety and depression, have difficulty managing anger, have trauma related disorders, and many other mental health concerns that tend to sap away their energy and self esteem. Let me help you regain your confidence and shift you onto a path of hope and healing.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

After our first session together, I hope that we can start building the necessary trust and rapport that is crucial in any therapeutic relationship. My goal is for you to leave our sessions with a renewed sense of hope and focus and have a more positive outlook on your future.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I utilize CBT treatment interventions, person centered therapy approaches, as well as goal setting through solution focused strategies. I also intergrate family systems therapy into my sessions. I believe that journaling and music and two powerful tools to help on your healing journey.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I truly believe that connecting with clients on a deeper level of understanding, empathy, and compassion, are the components that make the therapist client relationship thrive. As a therapist, I bring these attributes to the table and I think these qualities are the foundation for clients being successful in therapy.
