As a psychologist/therapist, I want to work with you to gain the tools and strategies to help you move past the area that is of concern. I have been in practice for nearly 20 years, having raised three beautiful daughters and now enjoying 4 grandchildren. I believe that we must find the positive and the good in each day even if it's small to give us the power and motivation to move forward. It is not always easy, but it is definitely worth it.
My approach combines cognitive behavioral, client/person-centered, solution-focused, psychoanalysis, trauma-focused CBT, and teaching individuals how to be kind to self by using healing oriented approach therapies. I will tailor our treatment plans to meet your unique and specific needs. When you are ready to take your first step towards change, I am here to help guide you toward a more productive life. Lets talk and begin a new chapter.
You will not be judged, but understood.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have enjoyed my time that I have spent with Dr. Ehrmantraut. I need a quick tune up and some advice on a certain problem and she has help me navigate through.
A great help, much appreciated.
I feel comfortable with her, she is unbiased and shares her thoughts with me and she is easy to listen to. Especially when I have major issues.
Dr. Ehrmantraut is really wise and helpful. She responds in a timely manner and uses a variety of questions and methods to help! She is uplifting and kind and knowledgeable about the human spirit and psyche
Dr. Ehrmantraut is like talking to an old friend. She is very understanding and supportive and offers suggestions or new ways to look at my situation. I look forward to each session and feel more empowered to take control of my life.
She is a great therapist. I’ve talked with her only a couple of times but feel confident that she can help me wade through my situation.
She is very understanding and gave me actionable steps to move forward. I appreciate her and would definitely recommend her as a therapist!
Dr. Ehrmantraut, is very approachable, knowledgeable and a great listener.
Visiting with Dr. Paula is really the first time I have ever really addressed my inner feelings to anyone about my sexuality and she makes me feel "normal". She provides a safe space to talk openly and she really understands where I'm coming from and presents choices that are open to me in going forward. We talk about consequences of decisions I could make and outcomes of those decisions. I can't express how it feels to finally talk freely about the secrets I have guarded about myself my whole life.
Dr Paula has been a great therapist for me. She was readily available when I needed her. She was supportive of me and my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed her as my therapist.
Dr. Ehrmantraut has completely helped me at every turn in my required council. During this disruptive time in my life I am put at ease through her listening skills and her advice to heal. Thank You Dr Paula!
Paula is wonderful. I really like how she lets me in on her opinion instead of just sitting there nodding. I appreciate her honest and straight forward approach.
Dr. Ehrmantraut is available, but not overbearing. She will hear you out and knows when to offer a solution, and when to simply listen. I trust her and appreciate her for the empathy and expertise she shows in her approach.
Dr Ehrmantraut was a wonderful resource to me during a very stressful event in my life. She was timely in her responses and really seemed to care about me as a human. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing help.
Super good at her job
