Paula Siegel MFT

I’ve started reading a compelling new book by Esther Perel entitled:
The State of Affairs Rethinking Infidelity

Reading her words have invited me to pause and examine my own thoughts and feelings, both personal and professional about this very complex human behavior and the multitude of responses that follows in its wake.

The human heart, and human behaviors that are driven by it, is indeed worthy of this in-depth inquiry and exploration. I’ve only just begun and I’m already captivated by Esther’s willingness to delve into this deeply controversial subject.

Worth reading for the couples therapist professional or anyone with a human heart✨

It’s been quite a while since I posted anything here. A lot has happened between then and now.
Some of you may know that I’ve been facilitating a monthly group for adult children facing the challenges of aging parents. We typically meet on the third Sunday of every month in my Sonoma Office. Participants share personal experiences, share information and resources, and share a light meal to close the time together. This is not a drop in group. In fact some of the group members have been meeting since the groups inception several years ago. There is no fee for the group but donations are welcome. And it is not a potluck, though members can bring food to share if they are so compelled.

If you or someone you know is feeling stressed and challenged with issues related to aging parents and or adult siblings, and would like more information about this group, please contact me at:

I welcome your calls or emails!

"We are all here on this planet, as it were, as tourists. None of us can live here forever. So while we are here we should try to have a good heart and to make something positive and useful of our lives. The most important thing is to be a good human being."
