About Paul

Paul Kranz is a Florida-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 18 years of professional experience helping people navigate relationship and family concerns.

Background and approach

He focuses on couples, partners, and family systems, addressing intimacy-related challenges and a range of relational struggles such as communication breakdowns, commitment questions, infidelity, blended family dynamics, and divorce or separation. Paul frames his work around practical solutions and evidence-informed techniques, including cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Paul emphasizes a collaborative, client-centered process that values honest communication and emotional safety. He works with clients on issues connected to family of origin, fatherhood, forgiveness, jealousy, money and financial tensions, and life purpose.

His approach combines goal-focused strategies with attention to internal systems and relational patterns, helping clients build clearer expectations, stronger boundaries, and more satisfying connections. He practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify the thoughts and behaviors that contribute to distress and then practice concrete strategies to change them. It is useful for addressing communication patterns, anxiety about commitment, and responses to relationship conflict.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and a nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship to help people explore feelings and clarify values. This approach supports clients working through intimacy concerns, family of origin issues, and decisions about life purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist treats the selection of techniques as a collaborative process, tailoring interventions to the client's goals, preferences, and the dynamics of their relationships rather than using a single fixed method.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for people balancing work and family commitments. These formats allow consistent access to therapy from different locations and make it easier to practice skills between sessions while maintaining continuity of care.
