About Paula
Paula Christian-Stallworth is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing hard moments in life. She works with adults dealing with addiction, anger, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, and career crossroads. Her tone is direct and caring, aimed at people who want practical steps and steady support.
Paula brings 27 years of counseling experience and holds LPC credentials issued in Colorado and Georgia. She focuses on real-world concerns like substance use, process addictions, domestic violence recovery, and sexual assault healing.
Background and approach
She also supports people navigating divorce, blended family challenges, and difficulties communicating with loved ones. Her sessions emphasize listening first, then working together to set goals. Paula uses client-centered methods to keep the person’s goals central.
She combines this with cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and with motivational interviewing to build momentum for change. Mindfulness and existential ideas help clients reconnect with values and purpose. Paula often helps people clarify what matters, reduce reactive behavior like anger, and build calmer ways of responding under stress.
She frames progress as small, steady steps rather than sudden fixes. People looking for ongoing support can expect practical strategies, coaching around choices, and a focus on rebuilding self-esteem. Paula aims to help clients find healthier patterns, cope with trauma, and move toward a more meaningful life.

How Paula’s Methods Translate to Online Care
Client-centered therapy puts the client’s priorities first, focusing on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs steady support, clearer decisions, or help rebuilding self-esteem.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and patterns that maintain addiction or relationship conflict. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and build gradual momentum toward recovery.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Paula will work with each person to try methods that fit their goals, adjusting strategies over time. She aims to match techniques to what the client wants and to practical daily challenges rather than applying a single method.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging let people send shorter updates or get support between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caretaking, and other responsibilities.
