Sol Counseling & Consulting (Sol) was founded in April 2020 by Myrja Paul. It is a mental health practice that provides individual therapy, family therapy and wellness services to adults and children. Sol was born out of a desire to create a welcoming space, where therapy feels authentic and actually helpful. Sol also has a vision to help break the stigma of mental health services in communities of color. Myrja created a counseling practice of therapists that are culturally competent and have a passion for serving others. Sol strives to make sure clients feel seen, understood and safe in our therapeutic environment. 

 

The name Sol was chosen as a shortened version of "soleil"-meaning the sun or sunlight. It signifies hope, healing, empowerment, joy and redemption. "The sun is a daily reminder that we too can rise again from the darkness, that we too can shine our own light". (S. Anja)
