When emotions run high, he brings in techniques that teach coping skills and emotional regulation. Paul trained at the University of Texas at Austin for his bachelor’s degree in psychology and completed a master’s degree in clinical psychology at Stephen F. Austin State University.
He earned his LPC credential while working full time and has worked in clinical and inpatient settings during his career. He has experience across many concerns including trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, grief, parenting stress, ADHD, sleep problems, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. He has also supported people facing identity questions such as gender dysphoria and LGBT-related issues.
When a case falls outside his scope, he helps people find other professionals who better match their needs. Sessions are practical and tailored. Paul combines active listening with hands-on tools you can use between appointments.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Paul often uses client-centered work, which means sessions begin with the person’s own goals and move at their pace. That approach helps when someone needs time to feel heard and to shape what therapy looks like for them.He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, a method that helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep problems because it focuses on concrete skills and small behavior changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul treats therapy as a collaborative effort and will discuss different methods with each person to find what fits their goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to focus on skills training, emotion work, or a mix of methods.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls let people use visual cues and more natural conversation, phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier on the go, and live chat or text messaging can work for quick check-ins or between-session support. These options give flexibility so people can continue progress despite scheduling or travel challenges.
