Creating Space Therapy is pleased to welcome Paula Rainey, LSW, to our clinical team. Paula is a trauma therapist who works with school-age children, teens, families, and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. She brings a personalized, trauma-informed approach to every client she works with, taking time to understand each person’s unique story before co-creating a treatment plan designed for genuine healing. Paula offers therapy in both English and Spanish, and brings a bicultural perspective that enriches her work with the diverse families and individuals she serves across the Fox Valley.
Paula’s work with children and teens is rooted in the understanding that when a child is struggling, the whole family is affected. She works closely with parents and caregivers, not as an afterthought, but as essential partners in the healing process, helping them understand what is happening beneath their child’s behavior and giving them practical tools to strengthen their relationship and create more safety and calm at home.
For adults, Paula uses trauma-informed, polyvagal-informed approaches within a personalized treatment framework, with a goal of helping clients move out of survival mode and into lives that feel more fully their own. You can learn more about Paula and schedule a free 15-minute consultation at creatingspacetherapy.com.
