She exhibits qualities of kindness and patience and possesses adept communication skills to guide you through necessary conversations.

Very kind, patient and thorough providing useful tools and information to better help understand my own brain and thought patterns in order to identify and work on patterns that keep you stuck. She offers an in depth holistic view of what is occurring inside of the brain in connection with thoughts and emotions. Excellent care.

Paula helped me during a very high anxiety time where I couldn’t focus and control my feels. She helped me realize I need to work through the uncomfortable feelings and wait for them to pass and stay present. The tools she taught me along with the articles, exercises and visual aids are something I use daily.
