At the heart of every successful therapy experience is a genuine connection and trust between the client and their counselor. For Paula Salmon, the first step in healing and recovery is helping clients find a safe space to open up—where they feel genuinely cared for and understood. Paula recognizes that experiences and fallout from trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and domestic violence can seep into every part of life, leading to emotional and sometimes physical pain. She understands that her clients simply want to live their lives and pursue their dreams, just like everyone else. Paula is dedicated to helping clients sort through their feelings, gain perspective, and navigate their way back to emotional health. Bringing not only the knowledge acquired through formal education but also wisdom derived from her own life experiences, Paula invites her clients to form a powerful partnership. Together, clients—the experts in their own lives—and Paula—the expert in emotional health—can work towards a brighter, healthier future.
