She understands how mental health conditions intertwined with substance use can lead to relationship challenges and the overwhelming feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. With extensive clinical experience in both outpatient and inpatient mental health settings, Laura has worked with diverse populations including gender-specific groups, adults and adolescents, dual diagnosis individuals, military personnel, and those involved in the criminal justice system. Utilizing evidence-based therapeutic practices, she effectively addresses substance use disorders by focusing on the biological aspects that influence thinking, feeling, and behavior. Laura excels in equipping her clients with realistic and appropriate relapse prevention strategies. She provides a safe and comfortable space for patients to openly discuss the stigma and internal shame associated with substance abuse.

Paula Acheson understands that many hurtful messages we internalize no longer serve us. She believes that living to one’s fullest potential requires a significant restructuring of mindset, and she assures her clients that they don’t have to embark on this journey alone. The negative thoughts and 'stuck points' need to be challenged to cultivate a brighter future. In her safe environment, individuals can focus on releasing tension, stress, and trauma, acknowledging loss, and coping with changes in their lives, while connecting with others who have faced similar challenges. Paula utilizes art therapy as a powerful medium, allowing people of all ages to express themselves creatively and regain a sense of control over their lives. In her practice, there is no room for judgment—clients can leave behind the 'what’s wrong with you' looks and find a space where they are truly in control. She fosters a creative and safe atmosphere that is informed by her confident and knowledgeable approach, uniquely tailored to meet the goals of each individual. Paula is dedicated to helping her clients discover and express their best selves, empowering them to move the barriers that life places in their way.
