Paul Wager

Hi there, I'm Paul!

I am an LMFT practicing in California. My approach to psychotherapy includes understanding my patients within the context of their personal and family history, life circumstances, and strengths/challenges. I have twenty years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families.

My focus

I work mainly with adolescents and adults who are seeking help for relationship issues, self-esteem issues, depression, anxiety, and addiction. I also work with patients who are coping with grief, looking to maximize their potential, or want to gain insight into themselves and improve their quality of life.

My approach

I think it is really important to help patients identify their strengths, learn to cope effectively with life's many challenges, and gain clarity on their goals. The theoretical approaches I favor include cognitive behavioral therapy, existential therapy, and client-centered therapy.
