About Paulina
My goal as a counselor is to help clients gain the insight and skills they need to successfully overcome life’s trials. Through the therapeutic relationship, we will work to change old patterns and begin living in new ways that lead to more effective results.
In my practice, I counsel from a Christ-centered perspective, where I professionally integrate faith and psychology. However, I see clients from all backgrounds and respect the right of each client to include faith as little or as much as desired.

Discover healing in life’s broken places.
Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing pottery by taking the broken pieces and putting them back together with gold or silver lacquer. The art teaches us that the piece is “more beautiful for having been broken.” My logo is a broken clay pot to symbolize that there can be freedom and healing when we embrace the messy, broken parts of our stories and piece them back together in a meaningful way.

FAQs

Each 50-minute session costs $150.
-
I do not accept insurance, but I can provide you with a “super bill” for each session that you can file with your insurance provider for reimbursement.
-
You can cancel or reschedule an appointment up to 24 hours in advance by going to your client portal. If you don’t cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours in advance, and you don’t have an emergency, I’ll charge the card on file for a missed session since I wasn’t able to see another client during that time.

Under the No Surprises Act (H.R. 133, effective January 1, 2022), health care providers need to give clients or patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. This Good Faith Estimate (GFE) shows the costs of items and services you can reasonably expect for your health care needs. You have the right to receive a GFE for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. The GFE does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. To learn more, go to cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.
