Bio
Paula Meerschaert, LLPC
Oakland University
I have experience working with adults experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, borderline personality disorder, and adjustment disorder. I hope to gain experience working with a wide variety of people experiencing different challenges. I approach therapy using Person-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral techniques (CBT). I hope to incorporate other techniques as they are needed.
I try to create an environment where the client feels safe through trust, warmth, and positivity. Each person is different and I try to tailor the techniques and style of therapy to each client. I would like to work with adults, the elderly, and the LGBTQ+ community. I would like to also work with children to further expand my knowledge with the use of play therapy.
