Paola Soto Ruiz

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida and a graduate of the University of West Florida. I work with youth and adults who are navigating emotional challenges and difficult life experiences that can impact daily functioning and overall well-being. I specialize in trauma-informed care and use EMDR to support healing from trauma, anxiety, grief, and depression. You don’t have to face this alone—support and healing are possible.

I use EMDR, including Attachment-Focused EMDR, to help clients process trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and attachment-related wounds. My goal is to support you in building healthier relationships, strengthening your sense of self, and moving forward with greater confidence and balance.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and client-centered. I strive to create a safe space where you feel comfortable sharing at your own pace and are an active partner in your healing journey.
