About Paula
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 20 years of experience. Paula Mardit helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting challenges. She works with adolescents aged 12 and up and adults of all ages. Sessions can be scheduled across weekdays, some evenings, and weekend mornings as noted by the therapist.
Paula uses cognitive behavioral methods and solution-oriented techniques to keep sessions focused and practical. She asks people to identify clear, achievable goals and helps break problems into steps that can be tried between meetings. Many conversations center on changing unhelpful thought patterns, testing small behavior changes, and building routines for better sleep, mood, and focus.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Special Education from Wayne State University and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Oakland University. Years working in special education inform her work with autism spectrum issues, ADHD, learning challenges, and cognitive impairment. That experience shapes how she adapts strategies for attention, sensory differences, and learning styles.
During the first session Paula invites clients to share as much as they like about their concerns. If someone already knows goals, she uses them as a starting point. If not, she helps clarify priorities and chooses practical steps to try. Scheduling options include daytime hours, some evenings through 8pm Eastern, and weekend slots between 9am and 2pm Eastern.

How her approaches translate to online work
Paula uses cognitive behavioral methods that identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. This approach often focuses on concrete skills like sleep routines, coping strategies, and breaking problems into manageable tasks that can be practiced between sessions.She also uses solution-oriented work, which narrows conversations to achievable next steps. That method emphasizes immediate, practical changes and tracking what helps most over a few sessions.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will review your goals, preferences, and daily routine and then recommend which strategies to try first. If an approach needs adjustment, she will change the plan together with the client.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. They also let people use tools like shared worksheets, screen-based homework, and routine tracking to support progress between meetings.
