About me

As a psychologist/therapist, I want to work with you to gain the tools and strategies to help you move past the area that is of concern. I have been in practice for nearly 20 years, having raised three beautiful daughters and now enjoying 4 grandchildren. I believe that we must find the positive and the good in each day even if it's small to give us the power and motivation to move forward. It is not always easy, but it is definitely worth it.

My approach combines cognitive behavioral, client/person-centered, solution-focused, psychoanalysis, trauma-focused CBT, and teaching individuals how to be kind to self by using healing oriented approach therapies. I will tailor our treatment plans to meet your unique and specific needs. When you are ready to take your first step towards change, I am here to help guide you toward a more productive life. Lets talk and begin a new chapter.

You will not be judged, but understood.

She is a great therapist. I’ve talked with her only a couple of times but feel confident that she can help me wade through my situation.

She is very understanding and gave me actionable steps to move forward. I appreciate her and would definitely recommend her as a therapist!

Written on Jan 18, 2024 after therapy with Paula for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, self esteem, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue

Dr. Ehrmantraut, is very approachable, knowledgeable and a great listener.

Written on Oct 30, 2023 after therapy with Paula for 4 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, anger management, and coaching

Visiting with Dr. Paula is really the first time I have ever really addressed my inner feelings to anyone about my sexuality and she makes me feel "normal". She provides a safe space to talk openly and she really understands where I'm coming from and presents choices that are open to me in going forward. We talk about consequences of decisions I could make and outcomes of those decisions. I can't express how it feels to finally talk freely about the secrets I have guarded about myself my whole life.
