Paul Sohr, LMHC

Paul Sohr is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and substance use concerns. He also works with people navigating LGBT-related issues, parenting challenges, anger, relationship strain, and life transitions. Paul emphasizes practical steps people can use right away. He frames therapy as a partnership that builds on each person’s strengths.

Paul draws on 15 years of clinical experience to guide conversations and set achievable goals. He listens for what matters most and then helps clients try different strategies in session and in daily life. Sessions focus on clear skills people can practice between meetings to reduce symptoms and improve communication.

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and shift behavior. He also brings client-centered work that follows the person’s pace and priorities. When relationship issues arise he applies Gottman Method ideas to improve problem solving and reduce conflict.

Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with stress, attention, and emotional regulation. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants change but feels unsure how to start. Paul combines these methods to match the problem and the person’s goals.

People who choose him can expect a straightforward approach, clear homework when useful, and steady support while trying new ways of coping. He frames therapy as a practical process aimed at measurable change and better day-to-day functioning.

Using CBT, Client-Centered Care, and Mindfulness Online

Paul combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered techniques, and mindfulness practices in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and impulsive patterns. Client-centered work lets the person lead the conversation while the therapist listens, reflects, and supports personal goals. Mindfulness practices teach simple breathing and attention exercises that help with stress and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. That plan can change as progress is made, and adjustments are made together based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat or text can support quick reflections, ongoing coaching, or work between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using the same therapeutic tools and structure as in-person work.
