Paul Pangburn Jr. is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who transitioned into clinical practice in 2005 after more than 30 years working in the chemical industry. He brings life experience and practical perspective to his work, believing that therapy is a process of self-discovery that benefits from a dependable human connection. Paul emphasizes collaborative exploration, helping clients clarify needs, identify goals, and find workable paths toward recovery.

He practices Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a primary framework and incorporates mindfulness techniques alongside selected methods from other therapeutic approaches to suit each person's situation. His clinical focus includes stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem concerns, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and coping with major life changes. Paul also works with issues related to aging and geriatric concerns, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, infidelity, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, men’s issues, midlife transitions, self-love, and social anxiety.

As a clinician, Paul aims to guide clients toward the answers they seek while respecting their sense of agency. He frames therapy as a collaborative effort in which the individual retains control over their life but can benefit from support in finding direction and practical strategies for change. Paul is based in Pennsylvania and holds the LCSW credential, which signifies a licensed clinical social worker.
