In response to increased community need for EMDR and trauma-focused therapy, Paula Soto is now only working adjunctly: potential clients must have, or being willing to engage with, a primary therapist who will provide ongoing stabilization and support.
Waitlist is open for people seeking daytime/weekday appointments for adjunct EMDR therapy or therapeutic/trauma-focused yoga.
If daytime/weekday is not doable with your schedule, but you would like to work with me specifically consider Intensive treatment (see below).
In-network with Beaver County Medical Assistance/Beacon, Highmark, United, and UPMC.
Intensives are extended sessions (2-6 hours) for one to four consecutive days (more days can be booked as needed; but there will be at least one day's time off after four days).
Books are open for scheduling intensives starting April 2023.
Intensive therapy is not covered by insurance.; qualifying clients can use VCAP funds to pay for intensives. Intensive clients must have, or be willing to engage with, a primary therapist to whom they are able to return for aftercare if needed.
