Paul Velen MFT‘s clients come to him struggling with depression, anxiety, the stress of city living, confusion, and of course – family issues. Their pain is palpable. In response, I believe that I have developed a dynamic and effective couples counseling sessions. Yes, it is unique. As are the amazing clients with whom I have had the privilege to work.

Linda Gort, LCSW, Magnolia Counseling in Riverside offers: “I have found that referring clients to Paul for EMDR sessions have been instrumental in helping them break through traumas, inhibiting them from resolving issues in their past, allowing them to break through traumatic roadblocks.”
