Hi, I'm Paula Whidden! Do you feel anxious? Do you find it difficult to sleep? Does your mind race? It is possible to calm your heart and mind while learning new ways of thinking and handling life events. You can find peace. If you have felt stuck and want to discover new ways to process old feelings, you do not have to remain where you are. I am a trauma focused Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who helps clients to know the hope they can have and provides them with tools and skills to handle life's difficulties. I specialize in teens and adults of all ages. I provide a warm and supportive environment for personal growth and emotional healing. I use a client-centered approach to guide and empower adolescents, individuals, and couples. I provide a non-judgmental space to work collaboratively with my clients to achieve their unique goals. I have training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Gottman Marriage Therapy, Prepare/Enrich, and anxiety management and treatment. I have helped depressed, anxious, stressed, and fearful clients of all ages. As we collaborate, I have enabled my clients to face and uncover issues from their past and help them face their future unafraid.

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
