Find a Therapist in United States

I specialize in trauma-focused healing and limerence therapy. I help overwhelmed people who have difficulty controlling their emotions, who have spent their lives feeling misunderstood, and who are constantly running from their painful childhoods and/or past re-connect to their authentic selves through healing their stressed nervous system, providing them tools which challenges their shame, and assisting them in creating new habits which give them emotional balance, newfound resiliency, and a sense of meaning.  

I am caring and non-judgmental; I realize that talking about problems can be difficult; however, clients find that sharing their concerns with an objective therapist enables them to progress to solutions quickly. I recognize that people seek therapy when what they have tried previously did not work.  

Our mission at True Purpose BHS is to offer you the best quality service in a supportive environment that allows you to maximize your potential in order to achieve a purposeful and healthy quality of life. Your mental health care is if of the utmost importance to use and we will do our best to ensure that your experience with us is one that is professional, warm, and assists in improving your your own personal growth and development.  

Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment. While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships. The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.  

I work with men who feel stuck, burned out, or disconnected from themselves, often after years of carrying responsibility, stress, or unresolved trauma alone. Many of the men I see have learned to keep pushing forward without stopping to reflect. As a U.S. Army veteran, I understand that mindset firsthand. Over time, this can lead to emotional numbness, irritability, and a loss of direction or purpose. My approach is existential, blending psychotherapy with enduring philosophical ideas to help you make sense of yourself, your relationships, and your place in the world. Our work will focus on self-responsibility, recognizing your limitations, and enacting your personal freedom. I guide men to face what they’ve been avoiding, reconnect with their values, and respond to life with intention. With compassion and honesty, I offer no shortcuts. Together, we'll face difficult truths without ignoring the realities of your life. Your distress isn’t evidence that something is wrong with you, it is often a signal that something meaningful is asking for your attention. Together, we slow down, make sense of it, and decide what kind of life you want to lead. If you’re ready to stop reacting to life, understand yourself more deeply, and take intentional steps forward, please reach out.  

Our practice specializes in supporting working women who feel overwhelmed, burned out, and stuck in cycles of overthinking and self-doubt. We help clients navigate anxiety, work-life balance challenges, and imposter syndrome by using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Our approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each individual—focused on helping you slow down, set boundaries, and feel more in control without sacrificing your goals. Whether you’re managing career demands, emotional exhaustion, or constant mental pressure, we provide a space where you can reset, rebuild, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Some things are hard to say out loud. Maybe you've never quite found the words, or the right person to say them to. Maybe you've been carrying questions about your body, your desire, your relationship, or who you are, quietly and for a long time. You don't have to do that here. I'm Paula Kirsch, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist, and I work with women navigating sexual health concerns, LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, and people in ENM and kink-engaged relationships. Not as a specialty I added on, but as the heart of my practice. I understand your world, your language, and the particular weight of the things you may have never said to anyone. Whatever you bring into this space, I'm not going to flinch, rush you, or hand you a formula. We'll sit with it together and figure out where to go from there. That's the work, and I genuinely love doing it. Book your Free Consultation on my website.  

A human being, by nature, is full of contradictions. We are fragile and strong, connected and hidden, outgoing and cautious. This is the beautiful dance of the interaction of our mind and body with our environment, our personhood, our sense of something greater than ourselves. I believe a strong therapeutic bond is essential to the therapy process and the beginning of healing. Knowing that while you are unique, you are not alone in this experience of being human. My belief is that strong therapy starts with the therapeutic relationship.  

I work as a psychotherapist, conduct research, teach doctoral students in Clinical Psychology, & write a blog in Psychology Today, "Our Empathic Nature." As a research & clinical psychologist, I aim to keep current in fields related to my clients problems, and to work collaboratively with them

Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation to see if I could be a good fit for you today.  

The relationship between the therapist and the client is the most important factor in providing "successful" therapy. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I value meeting clients where they are at. Whether it is working around issues of substance use, or dealing with anxiety or depression, I seek to help clients achieve their goals and live a better life.  

When you lose the little self, you find the bigger Self. You are the Light Who shines through the eyes: You are Ancient, Eternal, Infinite, One, and Unchanging Light. My job is to help you step out of the little self (the flesh-and-blood self), which is experiencing the pain of addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, etc., and into Who You really are. As a result, you will gain observer consciousness, which offers freedom, healing, transformation, and ultimately awakening.  

I am a legally-blind counselor who listens carefully to client's needs to determine what works and what may not be effective. A collaborative approach is used to meet your needs. If you prefer a direct and interactive clinician that is my style. However, I'm flexible and integrate client preferences to achieve clients goals.  

We are all unique individuals which means that each person I meet with requires special attention. My background and specialties were chosen based on my personal and professional experiences as it relates to our mental and physical wellbeing. Much of this revolves around the fact that behavioral change is not usually easy but has to be a foundation of treatment in order to obtain each individual's optimal health. My hope is to be a catalyst for change, and my goal is to create a safe environment to better reinforce long-term change. My experience provides the opportunity to educate, support, and empower each person that I encounter on a daily basis.  

Therapy is a journey through which find our authentic selves and become the best we can be. I believe that through therapy, profound and lasting positive change can occur. My approach is to meet you where you are and help you to move toward your goals, overcome obstacles, and achieve maximum growth.  

I believe each person is the expert in their own life, and my role as a therapist is to be a co-pilot—helping you navigate challenges, embrace both the light and dark, and create meaningful change. My approach is rooted in honesty, authenticity, and deep understanding, ensuring a warm, judgment-free space where you feel heard and supported. Using evidence-based techniques and practical tools, I tailor each session to meet you where you are, helping you build resilience, gain clarity, and move toward the life you envision. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I am here to support and challenge you every step of the way.
