Gallatin, Tennessee Drug Rehab Facilities

Paula Taylor EDMR Therapist Paula was born in Chicago, IL and grew up in Central Florida. After graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology, Paula went directly into human services, working as a University Counselor at SAGU. From there, she began teaching as an Adjunct Professor at Regent University. She spent some time after that, working as a case manager for Residential Foster Care and then for Biogen Idec as a Patient Services Coordinator II. Just before joining the team at HORC, Paula was leading the way in mental health education as Resident Director at Lee University. For Paula, the most fulfilling job is partnering with clients as they work towards their personal, professional, or health related goals. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, clients can explore their needs, gain insights, and begin to heal long standing hurts. When she isn’t helping clients heal, she can be found enjoying the outdoors with her family, kayaking, white water rafting, and canoeing.

I was born and raised in New Jersey and spent the last 14 years in South Florida before moving to Asheville in 2019 and now Knoxville, TN with my beloved dog Charlie. Because I am passionate about recovery and helping others, I have been working in the treatment industry since 2009. I am a certified alcohol and drug counselor and have been doing that for the last 2 years since leaving my position as Director of Operations of a program in Florida. I am also a full-time student pursuing my degree in human services. I know that working in this field is my purpose and love being a part of and developing a new program.
