More about Paula
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I have lived almost my whole like in SE Texas. I have one daughter and two grand boys. My husband and I have been married for 21 years. We live in a small town and have horses, a donkey, chickens and love to play in the dirt. I have lived in large cities and I understand that place of life as well.
I am very interested in helping the whole body heal; body, soul, and spirit. I do not believe you can separate your physical and emotional self. One step at a time, one day at a time we can become better versions of our self finding peace...but it is work. Are you ready for a fresh start? Ready to dig out the weeds and plant new seeds? Seeds that produce healthy fruit. Let’s till and tend to the garden of your soul (mild, will and emotions) together. It’s not too late... come as you are. We all have seasons that we need support.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
