[faq-toggle title=”Solutions for Young Adults and their Families”]

Paul Krauss offers consulting services to families with young adults all around the United States. Paul will assess your situation, work with you to make a specific plan of action, facilitate connection with the appropriate intensity and type of service for your unique situation in your area, and provide you with information and possible solutions for your situation. In addition, if you utilize Paul’s consulting services, you will be given free admission to his next workshop for parents of young adults.

*This is not a counseling service. This is an educational consultation and resourcing service. Paul provides this service with an agreement that you will be seeking the appropriate level of care from licensed professionals in your state or in the state of the treatment center (from crisis inpatient to local outpatient). Paul will conduct research to find counselors or treatment centers in your area and with consideration to a price range that would be appropriate for your situation, help you establish a plan of action, give you information on best practices to help your relationship with your young adult, and provide you with a customized report and additional resources.

NOTE: Paul has NO financial investment or personal interest in any of the counselors or treatment centers that he may recommend to you. While Paul will spend researching and contacting counselors and services in your area, he is an independent consultant and not a part of any referral program. Paul is referring to these counselors and/or treatment centers in good faith based on their advertised skills and ability to work with young adults and their parents. Paul has met with representatives and independently investigated many inpatient and intensive outpatient treatment programs to assess, which, he believes, are best equipped for young adults and their families.

[faq-toggle title=”Find Your Purpose”]

One of the most difficult parts of life is, first, believing and, second, feeling that what you are spending your time on and how you are doing it is meaningful and worthwhile.

We all come from unique situations and backgrounds, with vastly different life experiences.

Despite this, there is a part of each and every human that wants to belong, feel that our life has meaning, and believe that the way we spend our time is connected to a purpose.

We want to find our purpose.

No matter your age or station in life, cultural background, gender, situation, socioeconomic status, location, etc. Paul will work with you to help you find your purpose or prepare you for the journey in which you will discover it.

Are you a student who is not sure of what to study or pursue?

Are you a businessperson who is growing tired of your current position or way your company does business?

Are you a stay at home parent who feels tired and drained all the time?

Are you working a job that you hate?

Are you and artist or musician who is not sure how to integrate your creativity into your current circumstances?

Did you find a purpose earlier in life and then lose your joy and energy for this purpose?

Are you retired and are growing increasingly bored and disconnected?

If you identify with any of the above then Paul’s Find Your Purpose consulting program may be for you.

Or perhaps you already enjoy your life and you just want some guidance on finding greater purpose in what you are already doing. Either way, Paul can help.

When you find your purpose, it as if a light turns on!

Finding your purpose can help you get through the tiring and mundane parts of your week with ease.

Finding your purpose can help you overcome difficult obstacles and thrive in uncertainty.

Finding your purpose can help you gain clarity in your life on the little things as well as the big things.

Are you ready to start?

Often I’ve seen that when people figure out what they are passionate about and are able to translate this passion into a career, calling, or hobby, many negative thinking patterns may go away naturally. Once a person finds their purpose, they may feel stronger, more confident and experience a level of happiness and joy not previously imagined.

Finding your purpose can help you embrace your identity.
You may realize your true identity and find a new purpose.
It is never too late to start.

“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche

“Make your work to be in keeping with your purpose”
― Leonardo da Vinci

“I’m not unhappy,” he said. “Only people with no purpose are unhappy. I’ve got a purpose.”
― Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

***I understand that these consultations do not constitute clinical supervision and that I remain completely responsible – ethically and legally – for the decisions I make in my own clinical case situations.
