I work with clients who are preparing for a major life transition, be it a move, career shift, creative endeavor, or psychedelic experience.
What can help you move through life with greater ease? Dream recall, visualizations, guided meditation, active imagination, psychedelic experiences and somatic trauma-work are all activators we can use for mastering your inner compass. Track and attune to moments of heightened clarity and deep intuition. Embody gentleness and acceptance of yourself and your evolution along your (nonlinear) path. Activate supportive guides & allies. Increase natural capacities of curiosity & instant manifestation. In therapy sessions, we can build the framework for an transformative experience that is unique to your needs, goals, and situation.

Your ability to change or improve your situation depends on your desire to do so and my job is to awaken that desire within you.
By improving our self-image through accentuating our positive qualities we begin to see the world in a more positive light. A sure way of feeling better about ourselves is to find something good in every other human being. Note: I do not write letters or fill out forms regarding disability due to behavioral health issues.

Greetings. My name's Paul Surace, and I'd been working as a full-time Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with Kaiser Permanente's Behavioral Health program for the past 15 years. I tend to be a "straight shooter" -who is both goal oriented and solution focused with my patients, but very much collaborative in helping patients to decide what is their priority goals and discovering how my patients would like to accomplish these goals.

If you are unsure of your career path, I offer career assessments too.
Life can be challenging, but you are not alone. You already made the first step, and I am here to guide you through the rest. One way is to separate myself from the societal restrictions, starting with my availability. The average person works M-F 8-5; but all of the resources one needs are also only available during those hours. Not everyone has the freedom to work around such restrictions. I decided I would not make it more difficult to get help. I offer early mornings, later evenings and some weekends too. Together, we can align ourselves and schedules around those traditional restrictions.

With my understanding of the psychology of business (the business of life or career) tied to the underlying wisdom gained through years of applied psychotherapy.
Have you arrived at a place where remaining in the success flow requires more energy to sustain? Are you experiencing an increase in being reactive in place of proactive? Are you second guessing your capabilities and skills? Let's work together on having a harmonious mindset by discovering the innate obstacles that are no longer serving you and begin to cultivate, strengthen and propel you into a growth and transformative change.

I specialize in helping people of color with racial identity, career, and anxiety issues.
Relationships can be tough. Do the arguments make you question if this will work out? Why are minor issues becoming major fights about principles? You trust each other, so why is it difficult to be vulnerable and share tough emotions? After being together for a long time, it’s normal to feel some disconnection. But here’s the good news, we can work on it. Together, we can rebuild your connection, improve communication, and get back to where you want to be; growing and experiencing life together.

I work with clients navigating life transitions and integrations, personal growth through adversity/trauma, (re)claiming one's identity, redefining one's life path after life altering events, bereavement, wounded child parts, realignment of a purposeful career change, explorations of vulnerability, authenticity, establishing more meaningful bonds in relationships.
Are you a high-achieving, conscientious person struggling with stress, depression, trauma, imposter syndrome, or major life and relationship transitions? You work hard to succeed. You’re driven to excel and lead with impact—but beneath the success, you may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from the deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment you know is possible. Perhaps you're navigating the impact of past traumas, struggling with self-doubt, or seeking clarity in your personal or professional relationships, or you may be deepening a spiritual awakening or existential inquiry.

If you are experiencing feelings of sadness or depression, feeling overwhelmed with stress or anxiety, struggling with past trauma, feeling challenged by romantic relationships, having a hard time processing grief, if you are unsure of your purpose in life, confused about the next step in your career, or simply feeling like something is holding you back from reaching your full potential, I'd love to talk with you.
What I know to be true, is that even those of us who seem to have it all together on the outside, often struggle on the inside. Being successful does not shield you from emotional pain and sometimes it complicates it. I guide clients through their pain and into a space where they can experience joy daily despite living in a world that tries to steal it.
