Good therapy is about feeling safe, secure, and at peace in our bodies; the journey to Self-Awareness. It's knowing you are not your symptoms of depression, anxiety, substance abuse etc...but understanding that this is how people learn to protect and how they cope.

You will learn that you really do have everything it takes inside to heal in a way that is lasting.

Progress is very possible - the therapeutic relationship (trust/progress you feel, or don't) is the main driving force; empathy, non-judgement, and dignity for clients is foundational; non-traditional style - #1 - treat clients as human beings.
I focus on autism/ADHD (with or without trauma/PTSD). ADHD/Autism does not need to be previously diagnosed. My method is to analyze connections which typically stem back to one’s family of origin, which can lead to poor self-regard. Together, we work to identify patterns and tendencies, as well as where they came from. I’ve seen people change for the better. We are looking for results, realizations, epiphanies, and for you to break free from the cycle of unhappiness and self-loathing. www.PaulCulbertson.com

What is most important to me is building a strong, therapeutic relationship built upon a base of authenticity, respect, and trust to facilitate positive change to meet each individual’s personal goals.
I have many years of experience working with early childhood trauma and severe, persistent mental illness, varying from ages of 5 years to 70+. My goal is to empower and advocate for positive change within you, as the individual, and the system as a whole. The place that we will create together is a safe and judgement free space. I work through an Existential foundation, to help those I work with seek meaning and purpose, with skills built from experience with Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Cognitive Behavior Therapy, all within the context of a trauma-informed approach.

I utilize a variety of modalities to creatively support clients experiencing concerns in the areas of anxiety, depression, multicultural and race, gender and sexuality, self-esteem, trauma, life transition, relationship issues, and chronic illnesses.
Life is a complex experience and can feel overwhelming and lonely but you don't need to navigate the journey alone.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
