Located at 528 Oak Street in Syracuse, New York 13203, the psychotherapy and counseling practice of Paul F. Pickett, Ph.D., L.M.H.C. has served clients in Syracuse and surrounding areas for over thirty years. Dr. Pickett holds both doctoral-level credentials and licensure as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (L.M.H.C.) in New York State, combining advanced academic preparation with professional licensure in the mental health field.
The practice provides counseling and psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families.

In addition to direct clinical services, the practice offers clinical supervision for mental health providers, business consultation, and individual consultation, indicating a practice that serves both clients and other practitioners in the professional community.
Dr. Pickett’s stated therapeutic philosophy centers on direct engagement with emotional and psychological concerns rather than avoidance strategies. His approach examines the interplay among personality, historical environments, and a client’s current circumstances. The website identifies four factors as central to successful therapeutic outcomes: the therapist-patient relationship, the patient’s existing mental health resources, a shared belief system around problem-solving, and a balance between therapeutic support and constructive challenge. Services for couples, marriage counseling, and family therapy are noted alongside individual psychotherapy. The orientation reflected on the page suggests psychodynamic and relational therapy frameworks, though specific modalities such as CBT, EMDR, or DBT are not enumerated on the site.
Telehealth availability, insurance acceptance, session fee structures, and the year the practice was established are not disclosed on the public-facing website. Dr. Pickett’s practice appears to operate as a solo private-practice setting rather than a multi-clinician group. The website does not include a client portal or online scheduling system; prospective clients are directed to reach out through the contact information provided.
