Paulette Plummer

Paulette Plummer is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage strong emotions and life changes. She is based in North Carolina and brings 26 years of experience to sessions. Paulette focuses on practical steps people can use right away. She listens closely and helps clients make clear plans for next steps.

Clients often come for help with anger, anxiety, depression, or stress tied to work and family life. Paulette also supports people coping with grief, trauma, mood disorder concerns, and the challenges of parenting. She pays attention to cultural background and the effects of discrimination or isolation on mental health.

Her approach centers on client-centered care paired with goal-focused techniques. Paulette blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with solution-focused work and motivational interviewing to build skills and momentum. That means sessions include identifying unhelpful patterns, testing small changes, and tracking what works.

She aims to make therapy straightforward and useful. Conversations cover communication skills, managing impulsivity, and practical coping strategies. Paulette helps people set realistic goals and practice new responses to stress and relationship strain.

With many years in the field, Paulette draws on a broad range of experience without assuming one method fits every person. Sessions are collaborative, and she adapts her style to each person’s needs. People who want clear tools and steady support often find her approach helpful.

How Paulette’s approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. It helps people feel heard and use their own strengths to tackle anger, stress, or relationship issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to change them; it is useful for anxiety, low mood, and impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Paulette will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques to try first based on goals and preferences. That collaborative testing helps tailor sessions so the strategies fit daily life and feel doable.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports regular skill practice between sessions, such as homework from CBT or brief motivational check-ins, so progress can continue outside the appointment time.
