About Paul
Paul Moffett is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 35 years of clinical experience. He has worked across inpatient, outpatient, residential, and independent practice settings. Paul frames sessions simply: he listens, asks clear questions, and helps people find practical next steps.
He focuses on everyday problems that wear people down. That includes stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and relationship and intimacy concerns. Parenting is listed among his areas of focus, and he supports parents who are navigating difficult moments and decisions.
Background and approach
Paul uses a blend of approaches to match what each person needs. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and actions, and client-centered work to make space for people to be heard. Attachment-based ideas inform how he talks about relationship patterns and emotional bonds.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Paul helps people set small, realistic steps and track progress. He also addresses bigger issues such as trauma, bipolar concerns, anger, and coping with life changes when those come up.
After many years in varied settings, he brings practical experience to complex situations like adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and managing communication or control struggles. Paul works with adults across the lifespan and accepts international clients by offering multiple online session formats.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, then take meaningful action even when feelings are difficult. It can help with anxiety, stress, and coping with life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Paul uses CBT techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors to see what works better.
Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early and current relationships shape expectations and reactions. This approach can be useful for relationship strains, intimacy issues, and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Paul will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then adjust methods so therapy fits their needs. He aims to combine practical tools and listening to create a useful plan.
Online sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation from wherever they are, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging allow for shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options offer flexibility so people can pick what works best for work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
