Paula Lynch

"""Paula Lynch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a degree from Edinboro University. She specializes in treating anxiety, codependency, divorce, domestic abuse, grief and loss, narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), trauma and PTSD, and women's issues. Paula employs a therapeutic approach that combines elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and art therapy, along with techniques from EMDR, acceptance-based therapy, and humanistic theory.
Paula believes in the power of positive change through understanding and overcoming anxiety. She asserts that trauma creates disturbances that affect our ability to self-regulate, and relationships can shape our outlook on life both negatively and positively. She focuses on empowerment, self-examination, and the importance of understanding the past to create a better future. Her methods, including art therapy and talk therapies, support healing on each client's unique journey.
With experience in a partial hospitalization unit for students with co-morbid disorders, private practice with diverse client age groups, and a college campus setting, Paula has a comprehensive background in mental health care. She has worked extensively with the differently-abled, LGBTQIA+ individuals, those experiencing grief, and individuals dealing with death and dying to help them find purpose and worth in their lives.
Paula is passionate about social justice and human rights, enjoying her role as a therapist to learn about the human condition, and how the mind can overcome nearly anything with the right tools. In her free time, she enjoys empowering people to overcome disabilities, social systems, or abusive relationships, reinforcing her belief in the resilience of the human spirit."""
