About Us

G. Paul Blimling, PsyD

Clinical Psychologist

I am a licensed psychologist based in Lafayette, Colorado, working primarily with adults. My clinical approach blends psychodynamic, humanistic, and cognitive-behavioral theories, allowing me to tailor therapy to your specific needs. I believe that understanding our patterns is crucial to building a life that feels meaningful, fulfilling, and sustainable. As an LGBTQ+ ally, I am committed to the dignity of all individuals and strive to create a welcoming, safe, and confidential space.

My style is relaxed, curious, and focused. I prioritize understanding more than just symptoms or diagnoses; I want to understand you. I encourage clients to be honest, take reasonable risks, and learn to trust themselves so they can move forward with courage and conviction.

I bring over a decade of diverse experience to my practice. After earning my Doctor of Psychology degree from Rutgers University, I joined the faculty at Albany Medical College’s Department of Psychiatry. There, I supervised residents, lectured, and developed a model of psychotherapy integrating client-chosen music. I am currently licensed in Colorado, New York, and all PsyPact* states.

Outside the office, I live in Erie with my wife, daughter, and our rescue pup, Maisie. You’ll usually find me riding my motorcycle, playing the cello, or trying everything in my power to make my 9-month-old giggle. A classically trained cellist in a "former life," I believe resolutely that music is medicine.

I welcome inquiries and am happy to schedule a free consultation.

Stephanie Silberman, PhD

Clinical Psychologist

I am a licensed psychologist in Lafayette, Colorado, specializing in child, adolescent, and family therapy, as well as psychological assessment. My approach is supportive and collaborative, grounded in respect and curiosity. Creating a safe, nonjudgmental space is central to how I practice, one where you can share your story and move toward meaningful, lasting change. I have an integrative therapeutic orientation, which is guided by your unique needs and draws from evidence-based approaches such as: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Functional Family Therapy, and Parent Management Training.

I bring over 15 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults from a wide range of backgrounds. I have supported individuals and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, behavioral concerns, school refusal, adjustment difficulties, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts. I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Kent State University and completed advanced training at the University of New Mexico and Johns Hopkins/Kennedy Krieger Institute specializing in child and family therapy.

I have lived in Erie for the past four years. Outside of the office, I love getting outside with my family and our hyperactive dog, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, watching new TV shows, and working on craft projects.
