About Paul
Paul Schroeder-Haag is a licensed professional counselor who brings seven years of clinical experience to his work. He trained in counseling after completing a master’s in criminal justice and returned to school to earn a master’s in counseling. He practices in Wisconsin and speaks English.
He focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, and coping with life changes.
Background and approach
He also pays attention to matters like domestic violence, drug and alcohol addiction, fatherhood challenges, and men’s issues. His style is relaxed and down-to-earth. He aims to make people feel comfortable talking about hard things and spends time getting to know each person’s story.
Sessions emphasize practical steps and real strategies rather than jargon. Paul uses a mix of approaches depending on what a person needs. He may draw on client-centered work to follow a person’s lead, cognitive behavioral techniques for thinking and behavior patterns, mindfulness for present-moment skills, solution-focused planning for concrete goals, or trauma-focused methods when past events are central.
He has worked with a wide variety of people in different settings, including those affected by homelessness, addiction, abuse, and clergy. That range of experience informs how he tailors support and suggests next steps. Paul continues to study and refine his practice so he can offer useful tools and steady support while people work through difficult situations.

How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy means the therapist follows a person's lead, reflects what they say, and helps them set their own pace and priorities. This approach is useful for people who need a calm listener and want to shape their goals collaboratively.Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical tools to shift unhelpful thinking and change behavior, which can help with anxiety, anger, and depressive patterns.
Trauma-focused therapy addresses the impact of past traumatic events and uses strategies to reduce their ongoing effect. It helps people who struggle with symptoms from trauma or who find past events interfere with daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on thinking patterns, present-moment skills, safety and processing, or a mix of methods.
Online sessions offer flexibility and can make therapy easier to fit into a week. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker check-in, and text messaging lets someone send updates between sessions. These options help people maintain continuity of care and choose the format that best suits their schedule and comfort.
