Paul is incredibly gifted as a therapist. His guidance is not only wise but also practical. And his heart is golden. He is a Christian therapist through and through with the patience of a saint and the heart and mind of Christ whose Holy Spirit I have come to experience through Paul is our Helper in times of distress. I can't recommend Paul enough. Thanks, Paul! Thanks be to God for you!

More about Paul

My name is Paul Muenzmay (Munz-may). I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I received my Masters Degree in Community Psychology from Springfield College campus in Tampa, FL. The idea behind Community Psychology is that there are many people who make decisions about “the client”; sometimes without their knowledge. It is my responsibility as the therapist to interact with each of those people and we function as a team in order to meet “the client”at the point of their need.
After receiving my Masters degree, I also underwent two years of supervision where I met regularly with a Licensed Clinical Supervisor. I presently work full-time at New River Correctional Institution. I have worked in the correctional environment since 2011. In this setting, I have provided services to folks diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Schizophrenia and helped them to adjust to the Correctional Environment. In addition, I have done work at First Step of Sarasota “Choices” program which is a diversionary program for people who would otherwise be in jail because of substance abuse issues.
My approach is interactive. My approach is that we work as a team with the end goal of improving quality of life for you. I believe that Work and Success go hand in hand. One is not coming without the other. Change is hard, but nothing worth having comes easily. It is my intention to work with you, be a part of your support team to help you feel better. I look forward to hearing from you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Paul is incredibly caring and astute in his observations. His Christian kindness and prayerfulness comes through in everything he says. He checks in regularly, is extremely flexible with scheduling and very responsive in between sessions. He often provides insights and recommendations during our sessions that are extremely practical and invaluable. I am grateful for his counsel and encouragement as is my family.
Thoughtful, considerate and kind. Also insightful in his line of work. Highly recommend Paul.
Very knowledgeable in his skills and his experiences make him even more knowledgeable. Checks in often. Helped me, as a parent, to get through a hard time with parenting a difficult teen.
Very patient and understanding of addiction habits and how to prevent them.
Paul was very helpful and understanding, as well as being accommodating in the time and manner in which I was able to communicate with him
