About
About Paula
Paula Mardit is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 20 years of experience. She works with adults and adolescents 12 and older on problems like depression, anxiety, stress, anger, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, grief, and trauma.
She trained in special education (B.S., Wayne State University) and counseling (M.A., Oakland University). That background informs how she approaches autistic traits, ADHD, learning differences, and aging or cognitive concerns. Paula draws on straightforward, evidence-based techniques in her sessions.
Paula commonly uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses solution-oriented methods to set short-term, achievable goals and track progress. Sessions focus on practical steps rather than lengthy theory talks.
At the first session she invites clients to share what they feel comfortable saying. If someone has clear goals, Paula will work from those. If a person is unsure, she will help identify concrete aims together and make a plan to reach them.
Her prior work in special education gives her additional perspective on attention differences, learning challenges, and cognitive impairment. That experience often shapes how she structures homework, routines, and communication strategies for clients.
Scheduling includes weekday daytime hours, evenings up to 8pm Eastern, and some weekend morning appointments. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and clients complete a short matching questionnaire before booking.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Paula uses cognitive behavioral techniques online to help people spot patterns in thoughts and behaviors and try new ways of responding. That approach is useful for anxiety, anger, depression, sleep problems, and stress because it breaks problems into smaller, changeable steps.She also uses solution-oriented work which focuses on immediate, practical goals and small experiments people can try between sessions. This method helps when someone wants concrete changes quickly, such as improving communication at work or reducing outbursts at home.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Paula will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in on progress and adjusts the plan as needed so the work stays relevant.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, working with a licensed professional online can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins around a work break, evening appointments without commuting, or skipping travel time on a tight schedule. Ask about the available session types when you schedule to match the format to your routine.
