Welcome! I'm Paula Wills, and I'm truly glad you're here. Taking the first step towards seeking support is incredibly courageous, and I'm here to walk that journey with you. As a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC), I bring over 32 years of teaching experience to my counseling practice, with 23 of those years dedicated to working with adolescents, adults, and families. I specialize in various therapeutic approaches, including: -Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT): Helping clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. -Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Guiding individuals towards accepting their feelings and committing to meaningful actions. -Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT): Focusing on finding solutions in the present and future rather than dwelling on past issues. My areas of focus include: Anxiety, Depression, Executive Functioning, Parent and Child Therapy. Additionally, I have a strong background in supporting educators through their mental health journeys. My therapeutic approach is open, non-judgmental, and centered on your mental well-being. I believe in creating a collaborative environment where each session is tailored to your unique needs and goals. Together, we will work towards building resilience and fostering a positive path forward. Outside of my professional life, I find joy in hiking and camping, spending quality time with my amazing children, and getting lost in a good book. These activities help me stay grounded and bring a sense of balance to my life, which I believe enhances the support I can offer to my clients. Thank you for considering me as part of your journey. I look forward to working with you towards achieving your goals and enhancing your overall well-being.
