Paula Daine-De Broux is a licensed clinical social worker with 35 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and low self-esteem. She speaks plainly and listens with respect and sensitivity. Her focus is on practical steps that fit each person's life.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to make that step easier to take. Paula adapts conversations and plans to what each person needs.

Background and approach

She works on coping skills for panic, managing strong emotions, and rebuilding confidence after relationship difficulties or separation. She also addresses substance use and the complicated feelings that come with it. Sessions often include straightforward tools people can use between meetings.

Her long experience includes supporting people through multicultural concerns and women's issues. She pays attention to how background and culture shape stress, relationships, and recovery. Paula helps people name patterns like codependency or abandonment worries and then tries out new ways of responding.

Therapy with Paula centers on clear goals and steady progress. She encourages small, doable changes that add up over time. Forgiveness, life purpose, and self-love are common topics when people want deeper change.

Paula offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. She works with people ready to talk about mood challenges, social anxiety, sexuality, or parenting stressors. The first session focuses on what matters most to the person and what a useful next step would look like.

Online support

Evidence-based techniques applied to online care

Paula uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real-world change. She often emphasizes skills building for stress and anxiety, teaching breathing, grounding, and thought-management tools that help during panic or worrying moments. These techniques aim to reduce immediate distress and improve day-to-day coping.

She also works on relapse prevention and practical strategies for addictions, helping people identify triggers, plan safer choices, and build routines that support recovery. For issues around relationships, abandonment, or codependency, sessions include learning new boundaries and practicing clearer communication to reduce repeated patterns.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Paula will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit the person's situation, and adjust plans based on what helps. The therapist and client work together to pick techniques that feel useful and realistic.

Online formats offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when deeper interaction is wanted. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging support shorter updates or momentary coping between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent across different schedules and locations, while still focusing on practical progress.
