Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Paul. I am a Licensed Therapist and my goal is to help you discover ways forward through distress towards wellness. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. Distress is experienced in many different ways that impact our ability to function and cope within a healthy framework. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth behavioral patterns and pain perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or are just ready to move in a new direction, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to book a session.

Thanks. Hope I can be a resource.

My approach to therapy

I am a listener and an empath while being and existential realist. There are ways forward and I love assisting people in discovery and mediating wellness to the best of my abilities.

I believe the best way to present to our sessions is with curiosity and desire to engage. Therapy is a space for processing distress, finding insight, and discovering ways forward. My role as a therapist is to create a safe space where we can attune to your needs and create pathways towards changes that you desire.

What you can expect from me

During our first session we will get to know each other. There is nothing about having a first session that locks anyone into a commitment. Our time will be spent in dialogue about who I am as a therapist and whatever you feel comfortable sharing with me about your reasons for seeking therapy. In some cases I may assess for potential safety concerns or levels of distress though these diagnostics are only to find appropriate supports for challenges that someone may be experiencing at heightened levels. Therapy is a conversation and our first session will give us both information about one another to decide what the next steps may be.
