Vilija Paulius, LMHC
Hi, I'm Vilija (Vi lee uh). It takes courage even to begin looking for a therapist. The clients I work with are often thoughtful, capable people who also feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns they’re ready to shift. Some are carrying the weight of past experiences, others are navigating relationship challenges or questioning their sense of identity. They share a desire for real insight, healing, and change.
I support adults through anxiety, trauma, OCD, and relational stress. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and trauma-informed care, I tailor each session to the individual. Together, we build insight, strengthen coping tools, and create space for meaningful growth.
Starting therapy is not easy, especially for those used to doing everything alone. This process can offer relief, clarity, and a deeper connection to self. If you are ready to explore what’s beneath the surface and feel more supported in your daily life, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
