Meet Paula Bloom, LPC
ABOUT BLOOMWELL CARE
Warm, direct, and deeply curious.
Licensed Professional Counselor, Trauma Therapist, and Founder of Bloomwell Care.
Therapy asks a lot of people.
You’re expected to sit across from someone you’ve just met and talk about experiences you’ve spent years protecting. It’s completely normal if that feels intimidating or strange.
I don’t believe trust is automatic and given to me simply because I’m a therapist. It’s something we build together through consistency, honesty, and a real person-to-person relationship over time.
Consistency - Honesty - Connection
Why I Became a Therapist
MY STORY
My path to this work was intentional. Over nearly a decade in the mental health field, I’ve had the privilege of working with people through some of their most difficult chapters, including time spent supporting homeless veterans.
I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of San Diego, and since then, I’ve been committed to helping people grow from trauma, understand themselves more deeply, and build lives that feel more self-compassionate and meaningful.
No matter how long you’ve been carrying something, there is a way through.
Therapy that feels like a good fit.
