More about Paula
- 6 years' experience

- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Tennessee with over 20 years of experience. I have worked with clients in a wide range of settings that include hospital, home health, hospice, dialysis, military, and school. I have a wide range of experience including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, end of life issues, medical decision making, OCD and ADHD.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused therapy, and motivational interviewing. I believe in treating each person as a unique and special individual and will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your specific needs. I believe that you are your own best expert and that you possess the strengths that will help you lead a better life.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I’ve only had the pleasure of seeing Paula for about a month, but she has already helped me so much. She’s very easy to talk to and gives great advice. She gives you a different outlook on your situations and gives you great ideas on how to cope and get back into things you once loved. I had lost all hope until I talked to her, now I feel like I’m slowly starting to become myself again

Mrs. Paula has helped me to get back to the person I know I am meant to be. I struggled with severe anxiety and some depression. But talking to her and giving me the tools I needed to succeed has been such an accomplishment for myself. I feel so much more present and excited to spend time with my family and friends. I feel like I can tackle more hardships now because of the expertise she has presented to me. She has motivated me to feel more comfortable and happy to start my journey to becoming a happier and more successful person.
