About Paula
Paula D’Amore is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on practical support for people feeling overwhelmed. She helps with stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, grief, parenting strain, and life transitions. Paula’s approach is warm and direct, with short-term goals and tools you can use each day.
Paula builds each plan around the person in front of her. She emphasizes self-awareness and simple routines that reinforce emotional health. Sessions often include mindfulness practices and clear, action‑oriented steps to reduce reactivity and improve coping.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns. Dialectical behavior ideas are used when people need better emotion regulation skills. Motivational interviewing guides conversations about change when someone feels stuck.
Paula describes her style as interactive and genuine. She keeps a small caseload so she can give focused time to each person. Expect straightforward conversation, practical exercises, and check‑ins about what is working.
Paula has five years of experience and holds LCSW, which means she practices as a licensed clinical social worker in Tennessee and Florida. She communicates in English and provides sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Her advice is simple: notice how you react, try small changes, and be kind to yourself as you practice new habits.

Online support
How Paula’s approaches translate to online therapy
Paula uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises and homework that can be reviewed in video or messaging formats. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities; it teaches concrete skills like grounding and breathing that people can practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Paula will talk with each person about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. She encourages testing techniques, keeping what works, and discarding what does not as part of shared decision making.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video is useful for face‑to‑face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for quick check‑ins. Live chat and text messaging let people share updates or get brief coaching between full sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy days.
