About Me

If you're suffering from anxiety, depression, substance use, low self-esteem, stress, or just feel stuck in a rut, I can help! I also specialize in relationship issues, including romantic relationships, familial relationships, and work relationships. Together, we will identify and confront self-destructive thoughts and problematic behavioral patterns to create positive change in your life.

Our work together could incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic and Mindfulness in order to remove the roadblocks preventing you from attaining the success and peace of mind you desire. My approach is compassionate and non-judgmental. I have Masters in Social Work from New York University and have been in practice since 2011. In my free time, I love traveling, the arts, reading, being outdoors, yoga and Crossfit.
I look forward to working with you!

Working with Paula has been such a relief. I feel heard and validated in my experiences. She makes seemingly massive problems seem so much more manageable and approaches every situation with patience and respect. I really enjoy working with Paula and I hope to continue my sessions with her well into the future.

I am surprised at the ease convenience and accuracy in which Paula got who I was. I’ve worked with other therapists in the past and haven’t come as far as I have in this short amount of time. She offers good insight, worksheets and reading materials as well as makes herself available to meet. I’d highly recommend working with her!
