Paula Krivchenia

I believe healing begins when a person feels truly seen, heard, and accepted. With many years of experience in the mental health field, I have had the honor of walking alongside individuals through some of the most difficult seasons of their lives—and watching them grow into strength, clarity, and hope.

I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Cincinnati and am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) in the state of Ohio. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship challenges, trauma, and many other life stressors. No matter what brings you to therapy, you are welcome here just as you are.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs. I use an eclectic style, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Gestalt Therapy to best support your goals and healing. I am also comfortable incorporating spirituality into the therapeutic process when it is meaningful to you, honoring your values and beliefs as part of your personal journey of growth and recovery.

I strive to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can share your story openly and honestly. Whether you are working through something heavy or simply seeking clarity and growth, I am here to walk beside you with compassion, experience, and genuine care.
