Background and approach
Paulette emphasizes clear communication and straightforward coping tools that people can use between sessions. Over her career she has worked in both inpatient and clinical settings. That background means she is familiar with a variety of mental health concerns and community resources.

She helps clients sort through emotions such as anger, low self-esteem, and depression while addressing practical problems like communication breakdowns and career stress.

Approaches that guide online care
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach uses problem-solving and skill building to improve communication, manage anger, and address work or parenting stress. This approach teaches concrete tools to try between sessions and measures small steps forward.Another approach centers on processing past hurts and traumatic events to reduce their ongoing impact. That work helps people name painful memories, understand how those memories shape current reactions, and practice new ways of responding to triggers. It can be useful for grief, trauma and abuse, and long-standing relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to choose techniques that match goals, needs, and personal preferences. Together they will review what helps and adapt the plan over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use face-to-face conversation when bandwidth allows. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or when video is not convenient. Chat and messaging offer brief check-ins and continued support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around family, work, and daily life.
