Paul Sohr , LMHC

Paul Sohr is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 15 years of professional experience. He focuses on supporting people working through addictions, LGBT-related concerns, parenting challenges, and anger management, meeting each person where they are and building on existing strengths.

Paul approaches therapy with the conviction that each person is the expert of their own story. He emphasizes collaboration and respect for individual choice while offering guidance and clinical skills to help navigate difficult situations and pursue more satisfying, balanced living. Taking the first step toward change requires courage, and Paul aims to provide steady, respectful support throughout that process.

His practice centers on listening carefully, identifying practical strategies, and reinforcing the capacities clients already possess. Paul works with a diverse range of life issues and transitions, helping clients clarify goals, develop coping skills, and move toward outcomes that matter to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Paul uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s own goals and insights guide the work. This approach emphasizes empathy and collaboration and is useful for people seeking greater self-understanding, help with relationships, or support through life transitions.

He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build coping strategies. CBT is often helpful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and behavioral habits like substance use.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Paul works with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy with Paul is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and allows work to continue from different locations. These options can help people maintain continuity of care around busy lives, travel, or other constraints while working with a licensed professional.
