Paul Grim's Therapy Style
I work with many people including children, teenagers, individual adults, the elderly, couples, families, and businesses. I accept insurance and offer a sliding fee scale for affordability. I use an actual 60 minute hour (75 minutes for couples).
I believe counseling should be available to people with limited financial resources. If you are a very motivated client, I will work with you to make sure that financial limitations do not equal therapeutic limitations.
I am trained in number of different therapeutic modalities including gestalt, psychodrama, narrative therapy, breathwork, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral therapy. My approach is called "integrative" counseling which is a blend of several different counseling methods and psychology theories. I can do brief solution-oriented counseling or longer term insight-oriented counseling which emphasizes personal growth and transformation. Each client is unique, therefore the therapy should be customized and flexible.
"Paul Grim has been a great addition to the professional counseling community here in the Gorge. He has been a valued resource and I have regularly referred people to him. Paul provides a calm and supportive environment that is helpful to most individuals seeking mental health therapy. He has a naturally caring personality which serves him well in his style of treatment."
