Paulette Denman, LMFTA

The world around us is a lot to manage right now. Many of us are feeling overwhelmed, unsure how to change the patterns that lead to more stress, maybe even feeling a little hopeless. You are not alone.

Here, you’ll have space to slow down, sort through your thoughts, and feel truly heard.

Together, we will uncover strengths and new ways of approaching the situations you care about most. This is a place to bring your whole self, your story, questions, hopes, hurt & fears, and work toward change that feel possible and real for you.

Couples

Having a supportive therapist to untangle patterns can help uncover what is keeping a relationship stuck. We will work to strengthen connection and practice repair from hurt and harm.

Parents are encouraged to be involved in teen therapy.

Teens & Family

Adolescence is a pivotal time. Collaborative support during this stage can grow trust, strengthen connection, and help teens and their families feel more understood.


Magpies are playful, curious, and attuned.
They spend their days watching and gathering,
making meaning from what they find.

Therapy invites a similar process;
collecting pieces of experience, memory & identity
then reimagining them into something whole.

Like magpies, I value what shines,
what’s hidden, and what’s been overlooked.
