Hi there, I'm Paola!

Feeling disconnected from yourself, others, or your emotions can be overwhelming. I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you build safety, trust, and emotional regulation so you can create healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

My focus

My ideal clients are people who feel stuck—emotionally, relationally, or within themselves—and want support in making meaningful changes. Whether they’re dealing with trauma, anxiety, or ongoing conflict, I help clients gain insight into their patterns, build confidence in navigating emotions, and strengthen the relationships that matter most.

My approach

My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person or couple. I draw from CBT to help shift unhelpful thought patterns, Family Systems to understand relationship dynamics, and EMDR for trauma healing when appropriate. For couples, I use the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy to improve communication and strengthen connection.
