Individual therapy
In individual therapy, you and I will meet one-on-one to confidentially discuss the problems that you’re having, set goals, and explore ways to meet those goals. I provide individual therapy to clients ages 18 and older.
People tend to seek individual therapy for all kinds of reasons. Some of these reasons include:
Feeling overwhelmed, stressed out, or like you can’t stop worrying
Eating or sleeping too much or too little
Social anxiety or having trouble forging or maintaining satisfying social relationships
Grades dropping or work performance decreasing
Feeling alone, lonely or like you don’t fit in
Low motivation, procrastination, or avoidance
Low self-esteem
Questioning your sexuality or gender identity
Feeling sad, numb, or apathetic
Difficulty focusing or difficulty starting or finishing tasks
Moodiness
Trouble managing anger
Difficulty adjusting to life transitions or losses
Coping with a trauma, such as sexual abuse or assault, physical or emotional abuse, a life-threatening diagnosis, or an accident
Group therapy
Tired of therapy that doesn’t go deep enough? Try group. In group therapy, the therapist and 4-8 patients meet at the same time every week for an hour. You can talk about anything you want, and fellow group members provide feedback and share life’s ups and downs.
Group therapy helps you see what individual therapy can miss. Even the most self-aware people have blind spots. In group therapy, your interactions with fellow group members reveal patterns you may not notice on your own. With real-time feedback from both the therapist and other members, you gain insight into behaviors that may be quietly undermining your wellbeing and relationships—insight that’s hard to reach in individual therapy alone.
Practice healthier relationship habits in a safe environment.
Group therapy is like a “relationship lab,” offering you a unique space to experiment with new ways of communicating and being vulnerable. It’s a supportive setting to step outside your comfort zone and practice emotional honesty—with guidance from the therapist and honest feedback from the group.
You're not alone—and you’ll feel it. In group, you’ll hear stories and struggles that mirror your own, which can be incredibly validating and healing. You’ll realize that others carry similar fears, longings, and doubts, which reduces shame and builds a sense of connection and belonging.
Tired of the same relationship drama? It’s not just them—it’s you too. You can’t change others, but you can work on your part of the dynamic. In group therapy, you’ll uncover the patterns keeping you stuck, get real feedback, and learn how to show up differently—so your relationships can finally feel different too.
Research-backed results:
Decades of clinical research show that group therapy is just as effective as individual therapy—and in many cases, even more effective. Problems like anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and substance abuse have all shown significant improvement through group work.
Group therapy also helps address the relationship patterns that individual therapy often misses, including:
Difficulty forming deep or lasting connections
Fear of speaking your truth or being left
Losing yourself in relationships
Prioritizing others’ needs over your own
Struggling to set or enforce boundaries
Holding on too tightly—or disappearing when things get hard
Feelings of jealousy, resentment, or confusion about why people "ghost"
Feeling stuck in relationships that are too painful to stay in but too important to leave
And more.
Healing That Goes Deeper. Many people come to group therapy after years of individual therapy and report that the group finally helped them break through stubborn patterns. It’s not uncommon for group members to say, “This is the first time I’ve felt truly seen and understood.”
Shared motivation. You won’t be doing this alone. Everyone in the group is there because they’re committed to self-awareness, growth, and healthier relationships. The shared investment creates a powerful atmosphere of accountability, empathy, and transformation.
Ready to move beyond the limits of individual therapy?
If you’ve been in individual therapy but still feel stuck or disconnected from other people, group therapy may offer the breakthrough you’ve been looking for. It allows your therapist—and you—to see how your relationship patterns play out in real time. This deeper insight can help you discover your blindspots that are keeping you stuck and unlock new paths for growth.
Take the first step today. Starting is simple. You’ll begin with 1–3 one-on-one sessions with Dr. Paul where you can share your life story and clarify your goals. Together, you and I will assess if group therapy is the right fit for your needs and make a treatment plan.
Give group therapy a real chance. Many people feel hesitant at first but discover, often surprisingly, that being part of a group leads to meaningful and lasting change that individual therapy alone hadn’t provided.
