About Pawel
Dr. Pawel Boyd offers help for people facing depression, anxiety, stress, grief, trauma, addiction, and challenges around relationships and intimacy. He is a California psychologist with 12 years of clinical experience who works with adults coping with life changes, career pressures, caregiving strain, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
He takes a collaborative, person-centered approach in sessions. Conversations focus on understanding what matters to the person, finding small changes that fit their life, and building skills to manage strong emotions. Practical tools are combined with deeper reflection to address patterns that keep problems repeating.
Treatment draws on concrete, evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and acceptance and commitment ideas to change unhelpful thoughts and actions. Dialectical ideas are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities, and existential perspectives help when questions of meaning and purpose arise.
Dr. Boyd also addresses stress related to aging, cancer caregiving, immigration, first responder work, and end-of-life concerns. He supports people dealing with communication problems, codependency, divorce, guilt and shame, and career transitions.
Sessions are conducted in English and Polish. Dr. Boyd holds the credential CA Psychologist 26663 and practices in California. To begin, prospective clients use the site's Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.
