About Paul
Paul Buehler is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing from New York.

He works in a direct, down-to-earth way. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused.
Background and approach
Paul listens for what matters most to each person and then suggests steps that can be practiced between meetings. He uses tools drawn from cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness to reduce overwhelming thoughts and build calm habits. Paul also uses client-centered methods and motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change.
These approaches help with relationship strain, self-esteem, grief, parenting challenges, and coping after trauma. He supports people dealing with career questions, identity and LGBT concerns, and difficulties like codependency or isolation. People can meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging depending on what fits their life.
Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location and therapist availability. Paul provides services in English and does not work with international clients. To start, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability.
Paul aims to help people take small, realistic steps toward better daily functioning and clearer goals.

How Paul uses practical approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the individual. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps clarify goals, which can be useful for issues like relationship strain, self-esteem, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them. It is often helpful for anxiety, anger, depression, and coping with stressful situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Paul will review options with each person and help choose methods based on their goals, needs, and what feels most helpful. The plan can change over time as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different preferences. Video meetings are useful for an initial conversation to build the relationship. Phone sessions work when a lower bandwidth option is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging can provide shorter check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make therapy easier to fit into busy schedules and can help people stay consistent with their goals.
