Therapy with Paul

EMDRIA Certified Therapist badge with text "EMDR International Association."

Healing begins with understanding — of ourselves, our patterns, and the experiences that shaped us. I offer a therapeutic space rooted in deep insight and attunement, integrating psychodynamic therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to support meaningful and lasting change.

Through a psychodynamic lens, we explore the unconscious influences of early relationships, unresolved conflicts, and internalized beliefs that continue to affect your present life. EMDR complements this by helping to process distressing memories, reduce emotional reactivity, and restore a sense of safety and empowerment in the body.

Together, we work to uncover the deeper threads of your story, make sense of emotional responses, and gently transform patterns that no longer serve you. Whether you’re navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, or a desire for personal growth, therapy is a collaborative journey — one that honors your resilience and helps you reconnect with your inner resources.

Let’s begin this journey toward clarity, integration, and healing.
