My integrative approach to therapy is tailored to your unique and specific needs. This therapeutic style helps you explore core beliefs about yourself and facilitates growth towards inner strength and resilience. Through empathy, warmth and positive self-regard, I create space for you to believe and trust in yourself.
I have more than 20 years experience working with those who have experienced trauma, depression and anxiety. I use a combination of evidence-based therapies which include: cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and ego state therapy. I look forward to working with you on your healing journey!

I provide individual and group therapy for men in their 20s-50s who have done therapy before and are looking to go deeper. As an individual therapist, I like to be actively involved and give feedback about what I’m noticing in the here-and-now. This gives us a portal into understanding how you get tripped up and where you can lean into a fuller, deeper way of living. My men’s groups are long-term process groups that primarily focus on relationships between members. Group is all about practicing direct, authentic contact and exploring your blocks to getting closer with others.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over ten years of experience. As a therapist, I’m not here to judge you or tell you what’s wrong. Instead, I am here to help you uncover your hidden strengths and harness those abilities to address any challenges or roadblocks you may face. You don’t have to do it alone; we can walk this path together.

Depression. Anxiety. Low self-esteem. Relational issues. These are common issues that people face when it comes to mental health challenges, which are enough to make life difficult. Chances are your relationships and most importantly your relationship with yourself have been greatly impacted by these factors. There’s this sense that something has to change, but you might not know where to begin. Together we embark on this journey of uncovering just how you got here and discovering where you want to go.

My approach is one that allows all of you to show up in the therapy room. Anxiety, depression, overthinking, difficulty connecting in relationships, shame… all these things can impact our ability to live our life to the fullest. So much of the cultural messaging around masculinity centers around avoiding vulnerability, and avoiding difficult emotions. By being present to what is actually here, we are much better equipped to choose how we want to show up in our lives. Talking with someone, especially as a man, can feel difficult, and I strive to provide an environment that feels comfortable, safe, and real. Reach out for a free consultation.

I have been a mental health provider for nearly 20 years. I absolutely love what I do! I was trained psychoanalytically but also use a humanistic, client-centered and eclectic approach to therapy. I am a warm, caring and engaging therapist. I enjoy working with male clients and have had tremendous success in treating men with depression, anxiety and relationship issues.
Thank you.

In my practice as a therapist I use the research on what works to help my clients get the outcomes they want: better relationships, managed anxiety, less depression and more control over life. I do not limit our work into any single modality but blend a variety of techniques to tailor my approach for each individual. I draw influence from cognitive behavioral, humanistic and dynamic psychotherapy. Therapy is a place to develop and apply philosophy to get to a different place than we are able to get on our own. I’m excited to join you!

Dr. Paul Fisher
Dr. Paul Fisher
I’m an experienced therapist, LMFT#23779, of more than thirty years. I have my own practice in San Diego, CA, and also counsel online, and teach graduate behavioral science courses virtually. I work primarily with adults, individually or as couples. I’ve led numerous support groups for men, as well as working individually with alcohol and porn addiction. I’ve also assisted men with life transitions, loss, divorce, parenting, co-parenting, self-care, anger management, and domestic violence. I assist in helping men understand themselves and to be responsible and accountable for their choices and behaviors. Men also need an awareness of what a woman needs in a healthy relationship, and I work in this area as well.
