More about Paula
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I have had the opportunity to work with different communities and I have learned a lot from my clients. My approach to psychotherapy is to help my clients understand their conflicts by getting at the roots of their wounds, so they are able to treat themselves with self-compassion and healing. The goal of therapy is not only to unburden the pain one carries but also to help transform the inner negative beliefs and cultivate radical self-love. My style is open, curious, and humorous.
