When you're struggling, it can be really hard to reach out for help. But, I'm glad you are. Despite feeling overwhelmed by negative thoughts and constant worrying, you've decided to face your fears. You're ready to feel freer within your choices and experiences in life, no longer being held back by past trauma or current stressful events.

Our time together can help you get unstuck, find peace within, and build more meaningful connections.

Anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma are some of the most challenging issues to live with. In my work with couples, families, and individuals I've had the opportunity to help guide my clients through these struggles and begin experiencing more fulfilling lives. I also have experience working with individual clients on body-image related issues and deconstructing the standard idea of beauty. If these issues are relatable to you, please know you are not alone. It is extremely courageous to take this first step to seek help and guidance.

I have a vast array of knowledge working with those who struggle with substance abuse, mild to moderate depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationship issues, low self-esteem, and ADHD. I believe in fostering a non-judgmental space for you to express yourself and to also explore difficult feelings.

I have always been passionate about the field of psychology, and more specifically understanding why and how people come to be the way that they are. In my opinion, no problem is too big or too small to warrant counseling. We have all been affected by our life circumstances and experiences, regardless of how different they may be to others. I aim to ensure that my clients feel safe and supported in sessions together, rather than embarrassed or shameful. I take a very empathetic approach, however, am also quite straightforward which I believe fosters a trusting and honest relationship with one another.

With over a decade of experience, I've had the privilege of working in various treatment settings with a wide range of people. I strive to create a therapeutic environment where people feel safe, supported, and motivated for change. My clinical work is rooted in evidence-based practices, ensuring that each session is effective and tailored to your needs. I understand the importance of working at a pace that is comfortable for you, while also providing gentle nudges to help you progress. My approach is warm, compassionate, and encouraging.

If you are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, or are coping with traumatic event, and have decided that something needs to change and you want to improve the quality of your life --therapy can help you find a better path forward. Together we can develop goals that will help you achieve less stress, feel better, and process difficult life events that you may feel have been dragging you down.

I am unable to accept new clients at this time. Feel free to check back to this site in the coming months. WELCOME! As a psychologist with 35+ years experience and author of 12 books I specialize in marriage/relationship therapy, grief/depression, overcoming traumatic memories, and anxiety disorders, My practice is limited to working with adults only. (Check out my personal website www.paul-coleman.com.)
