I'm Paul VanAntwerp, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience working in the Mental Health field. My career path and clinical experience has included years of inpatient hospital work, treatment programs (PHP, IOP, RTF) and various outpatient therapy settings.

In our daily lives, we face many challenges that can affect our mental health. One of the key factors in maintaining good mental health is resilience - the ability to overcome difficulties and bounce back from setbacks. The good news is that resilience is a skill that can be learned and developed. In therapy, the focus is often on reducing mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety. While these are important goals, simply feeling less bad is not enough to lead a fulfilling life. Our therapeutic approach aims not only to help you manage your symptoms but also to build resilience skills that will bring balance to your life.

I welcome someone who is ready to make life changes and would like assistance to take them from where they are to where they want to be. A willingness to work with a supportive, experienced (since 1979) social worker/therapist who uses dynamic and interactive approaches, knowing that I am the guide, and you are the one who knows yourself best and that healing comes from within. Relationship, self esteem, body image, career goals, family challenge, sexuality, spirituality, illness, loss, addiction, depression or anxiety related issues. I offered my first TEDx talk called Overcoming the Taboo of Touch, about platonic touch by consent.

This is your weekly hour to focus on just YOU.

Many years ago I changed my life by pursuing a more fulfilling career. The concept that most inspired me was “Neuroplasticity”- That we can change the way our mind works and in so doing experience greater well-being. Negative beliefs about ourselves are generally linked to negative things that we experienced in the past, or positive things that we needed to experience but unfortunately never did. By utilizing interventions that target "what happened" or "what needed to happen but didn't" we can increase our self-worth. We can't undo "what happened" but we CAN undo the impact that hurtful experiences/relationships have had on us.

I work with adults who struggle with emotional, relational, and behavioral difficulties and are looking to create positive changes in their lives.
