If you’re feeling on edge, stuck in old family patterns, or overwhelmed by change, you’re not alone. Maybe anxiety shows up as racing thoughts or a pounding heart, or depression has dulled your spark. Perhaps trauma lingers, or you’re navigating identity, culture, or a teen’s shifting world. I’m here to meet you exactly where you are, with warmth and zero judgment.

I’m Paul Margolis, a therapist with 40 years of experience helping individuals and families find steadier ground. I support people facing anxiety in its many forms (GAD, social anxiety, panic), depression, trauma and PTSD, life transitions, and family-of-origin challenges. I also work with teens and neurodivergent folks, including those on the autism spectrum, and I honor the complexity of multicultural identities and individuation.

My approach is practical, compassionate, and focused on what matters most to you. I draw on Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, family systems, and existential therapiesto help you name what’s working, build on your strengths, and take small, meaningful steps that add up. Sessions are conversational, collaborative, and paced to your comfort. I offer care in English.

If this resonates, let’s talk. A simple first conversation can be the start of real change.
