Hello! My name is Paul Andrew Germany. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health field and have worked with people from teens to seniors of differing back grounds, cultures, beliefs, and life choices. The majority of my career I have been employed by UTMB-CMC as a Mental Health Clinician. I can’t remember a time when I was not fascinated and intrigued by the subject of psychology and mental health; and it remains one of my passions to this day. I pursued my BA in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and continued my post-graduate studies in clinical psychology at Stephen F. Austin State University earning my MA. While working in the field full-time I continued to enroll in advanced counseling courses and exceeded the state’s criteria to become a License Professional Counselor. With years of continuing education and the motivation to be most effective counselor possible, I have stayed up to date with emerging theories, evidence-based techniques, and am proficient in many counseling methods. My counseling style is tailored to the individual with whom I’m working, however, I treat all with compassion, empathy and respect. The techniques I tend to utilize most often are those that have shown to be most effective. They include Cognitive Behavioral, Client Centered, Solution Focused, and Mindfulness Based Therapies. However, this again is dependent upon the issues we are addressing and goals you wish to achieve. I have experience treating individuals and groups with a wide range of mental health issues. From life coaching to treating patients with chronic mental health disorders in an inpatient setting, from agoraphobia to trichotillomania, there are only a few areas out of my wheelhouse. In those rare cases, I would work just as hard helping you find a therapist better suited to your needs. Whether you are seeking help for a severe issue and require long term therapy or you are just wanting an old school psychodynamic experience with a warm and non-judgmental ear to listen, I’m here. I commend you for taking this first step towards a better you; now let’s get to work.

What do you love about working with clients? I love helping people grow into someone they are happy to see when they look in the mirror and can tell themselves: "Today is going to be a good day because I am going to make it a good day." Which diagnoses are you skilled at treating? Most of my experience is treating people with addiction including but not limited to porn addiction, drug addiction, gambling addiction, gaming, and social media addiction. I also have experience working with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, ADHD, grief, and sex/relationship issues. Which client populations do you treat? I work mostly with adults but I am willing to see someone as young as 15 or 16 years old. I also work with anyone from any faith or culture; my therapeutic methods are not faith-based. What is your approach to therapy? I am a client-centered therapist. The best way for me to explain this is by using a driving metaphor. If we are in a car together, you are the driver and I am the passenger. As the driver, you control where you go because you have to live with your decisions. I, as the passenger, will help you navigate your journey by providing alternate choices, exploring choices, witnessing your grief, providing unconditional positive regard, etc. And at times, I will challenge you but at the end of the day, I am here to support you in your journey. Why did you become a therapist? I became a therapist because I have lost too many people to suicide and addiction. Loosing one person to either is too much. I have seen and experienced the devastation of learning to live without those loved ones. I want to provide others with the tools to cope with any issue they face because not everyone has the tools or the support system that I was fortunate enough to have.
