About Paul
Paul Schroeder-Haag is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with seven years of clinical experience. He works with adults who bring concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and parenting strains, trauma and grief. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day to reduce distress and manage pressing problems.
Before becoming a counselor he completed a master’s degree in criminal justice in 2006 and later earned a master’s in counseling in 2013. That mix of life and academic experience shapes his approach. He has worked with people affected by homelessness, addiction, abuse, and clergy and parents facing difficult choices.
His style is straightforward and relaxed. He aims to listen, ask useful questions, and suggest concrete techniques. He names several therapeutic approaches he uses and selects methods based on the person and the problem presented.
Paul uses cognitive methods when thoughts and beliefs are central to a problem. He employs trauma-focused work when past hurt affects daily life, and mindfulness practices when grounding and present-moment skills will help. He also uses solution-focused steps for shorter-term goals.
Clients can expect conversations that move from understanding to doing. Paul emphasizes steady learning to keep his work current and practical. For adults juggling parenting, relationship strain, or recovery concerns, he offers direct, experience-informed support.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship, allowing the person to lead the topics while the therapist offers reflection and clarification. This approach helps when someone needs a calm space to sort out relationship, parenting, or life-change concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It uses exercises and practical techniques to address anxiety, panic, depression, and patterns that get in the way of daily functioning.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on how past traumatic events affect current behavior and emotions. It combines careful pacing with skills to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and support day-to-day coping for people who have experienced abuse or violence.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made or as new challenges appear.
If you plan to meet online, confirm the session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around parenting and work obligations, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use the same practical exercises and skill-building techniques remotely as they do in person.
