Thank you for checking out my website

My name is Dr. Paul Eastman. I’m a therapist and licensed clinical psychologist who lives and works in the California Bay Area. My clinical interests include trauma, mood disorders, dating and relationships, intimate partner violence, and men’s issues, all while operating from an integrative, antifascist, antiracist, intersectional feminist, and culturally grounded perspective. For the purpose this website, however, I’m also a creative person! Digital photography is my medium of choice, and on this website, I’ll also be mixing in some writing in the form of blogs and poems. I have a few ideas for ongoing projects here, and these projects will be shaped and guided by my personal and professional lived experiences. I’ve always had a lot to say, but haven’t always felt like I’ve had a voice or used it effectively, so with these projects I’m hoping to become more me than ever before!

I want to be very clear that even though I am a licensed psychologist and trained therapist, this website is primarily intended for artistic purposes and does not offer professional mental health support. If you are seeking mental health support, please look into your local NAMI chapter. If you are having suicidal thoughts or are in urgent crisis, please dial 911, 988, or go to your local emergency department.
