GRACE & NATURE

My name is Paul Mylod; father to two beautiful daughters and grandfather to a very cute granddaughter. I graduated from Miami University (in Oxford, OH) with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Literature. Currently, I am in my 3rd year of graduate school at Divine Mercy University’s School of Counseling (near Washington, D.C.) on my way to earning a Master of Science degree in Counseling. I expect to graduate in December 2027. 

​

Many life experiences have led me to understanding God’s will for me in a much deeper way and, after much time in prayer and adoration, it’s become clear that He is calling me to walk with people through the struggles that naturally accompany the human experience. So, after raising my daughters and working several decades in an unrelated field, I’ve decided to become a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.

​

With much gratitude for God’s mercy, I live a Catholic-ordered lifestyle and am an active parishioner at St. James Catholic Cathedral and Incarnation Catholic churches. I’m a firm believer that God perfectly created each person - mind, body and spirit - in His image, out of love and for love, and so I welcome a holistic approach to counseling that addresses each of these components to one’s flourishing.  I have a great desire, as did Mary, The Undoer of Knots, to walk with people in their desires to untie the knots of their lives, whether it be anxiety, depression, addictions, negative thought patterns, loneliness or simply unresolved past wounds, I naturally have an empathetic heart, a passion for listening and a desire to provide evidenced-based, clinical help. If your mind, body and spirit are in need of therapeutic untying, I welcome the opportunity to collaborate with you towards your healing.

Favorite Scripture:

​​“Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” – Matthew 11:28-30​​

Favorite Quote:

“When you're weary, feeling small. When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all. I'm on your side, when times get rough and friends just can't be found…” – Paul Simon
