Paula Parra, Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Therapist

My clients describe me as:

warm, calm, and gentle in the way I help them learn and use the solutions that tremendously improve their quality of life.

Something to know about my approach is:

I tend to use EMDR, CBT, DBT, ACT, and EFT. My goal is to help you take back power that old or present wounds are holding over you, get unstuck, live life to your full potential, and replenish your life with energy and peace.

Together, we will:

get to the root of patterns that create suffering in your life; release and calm distressing emotions; improve the way you handle your relationships to repair, deepen, and strengthen bonds; and help you create and be the best version of yourself.

I specialize in working with people who:

need help- communicating assertively- clear, direct, and honest without attacking or blaming others - setting healthy boundaries - cultivating self-love and confidence, and - letting go of overthinking and people-pleasing.

I became a therapist because:

I enjoy the process of helping people get through life challenges and witness the monumental change in their lives resulting from Therapy.

More about me and my practice:

My clients become skillful at creating emotional peace within and with others, allowing them to be their best selves and love the life they are living. I feel fortunate to be of service in a profession that is meaningful and creates tremendous value.
