Therapist in Claremont, California Blair Paez-Wong, Therapist

Blair Kayne Paez-Wong, LMFT helps children, adults, couples, and families across California work through life’s most complex emotional challenges with clarity, compassion, and a deeply personalized approach. At LifeStance Health, she treats individuals as young as age 0 through late adulthood, providing support for anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, and a range of other emotional and behavioral concerns. Whether guiding a family through difficult dynamics or supporting an individual’s journey toward healing, Blair fosters a supportive space that promotes insight, safety, and lasting change.

With a strong clinical foundation and a trauma-informed perspective, Blair specializes in working with clients impacted by trauma, domestic violence, and childhood behavior issues. She uses evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and parenting skills training to support clients in building emotional resilience and managing stress, mood instability, and relational conflict. Blair also supports individuals with ADHD and bipolar disorder, tailoring care plans to reflect their unique strengths and challenges. Her work includes services for individuals with developmental disabilities, those involved in adoption or foster care, and clients navigating postpartum depression or women’s mental health concerns.

Blair is especially passionate about using play therapy and trauma-focused approaches to support young children struggling with behavioral or emotional difficulties. She recognizes the importance of early intervention and works closely with caregivers to promote healthy attachment and emotional regulation in the early stages of development. Her approach is warm, child-centered, and grounded in empathy, making her a trusted partner for families working through disruptive behaviors or early trauma.

Outside the therapy room, Blair recharges through rock climbing and spending time in nature—activities that reflect her belief in balance, mindfulness, and the healing power of movement and the outdoors. These personal values are often woven into her therapeutic approach to help clients reconnect with themselves in meaningful ways.
