Are you having difficulties in your personal relationships or other areas of your life? Do you suspect that alcohol or substance use in your life is becoming an addictive behavior? Is sadness, worry, racing thoughts or other matters becoming intrusive in your life? If you are experiencing these or any other concerns, I would like to help you. I can do this using insight oriented psycho-therapy to encourage behaviors designed to replace unproductive actions and beliefs with a useful paradigm for living with peace of mind. I am a results oriented Marriage and Family Therapist. The Doctoral research I have completed situates me to assist you through the use of solution focused interventions designed to change perspectives using an action orientation. Improving one's relationships has been shown to improve one's quality of life and life satisfaction. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and hold a Psy. D. in clinical psychology.
As far as addiction is concerned, my Doctoral research and studies combined with an extensive Addiction counseling experience, have positioned me to blend psychological principles with classical addiction recovery philosophies. These perspectives, when combined are likely to increase a person's chances of a sustained and fruitful sobriety experience.

Dr. Paul is truly the best. He's kind and empathic, yet he is also very honest and helps bring light to different perspectives. I've experienced a phenomenal change since working with Dr. Paul. I started off in distress and now working my way to inner peace and balance with the help of speaking to Dr. Paul every week. I'm thankful and am confident anyone who works with Dr. Paul will also experience amazing results.

It’s just nice having Van to speak to about some of my issues. He seems very experienced in the area of alcohol and/or substance addiction and has offered great insights into my personal struggles with that. He is genuinely non-judgmental, listens, and sincere with his approach. I found him at a point in my life where I was doing so-so, but struggling with some family relationships and using alcohol as a coping mechanism. He has helped me with my sobriety by sharing his personal stories, and also some tools that have a track record of working for others. At the end of the day, the work needed to change your life resides outside of theropy, but it is helpful to have Van on your side cheering you on.

Dr. Van Zeumeren has a warm and friendly vibe, it was easy to open up and share with him. He brings experience in several areas, so he always had a good idea of what to suggest or work on. I enjoyed the worksheets and learning pages he provided, gave me structure to work on some of the anxiety I was feeling. I saw him for 2 months, and by the end felt much more empowered to handle my anxiety. He gave me tools and walked through how to control my thoughts to improve my feelings. I found our time very instructive and I would recommend him to others wanting a safe place to grow.

Dr Van Zeumeren responds and listens to everything I have to say. Sometimes I do want to say more but he continues to talk and I sometimes forget what it was that I wanted to say. This more has to do with the online video format if anything, though I would like more questions to gage how I'm doing in hopes that I will be able to think of more during our sessions. This is in hopes that rather then being told how to connect the dots, I'll be able to do it myself. He is a wonderful therapist though, and I trust his expertise and what it is that he is doing for me, because it helps.
