Paul Van Orden

Assistant Life Coach

Paul was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, and has spent much of his life in Ohio, where he developed a strong connection to the Midwest and became a devoted Ohio State fan. He earned a bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Management and brings experience working in both inpatient and outpatient treatment programs. His background in behavioral health has given him a well-rounded understanding of the recovery process and the importance of supporting individuals through every stage of treatment.

In addition to his professional experience, Paul has spent years coaching youth basketball and volleyball, helping young athletes develop confidence, discipline, and teamwork both on and off the court. He also played college basketball at a junior college in Illinois, an experience that strengthened his leadership skills and passion for mentoring others. Outside of work, Paul enjoys staying active through regular workouts, exploring Japanese culture, and learning more about digital marketing and online communication. His combination of treatment experience, coaching background, and genuine interest in personal development makes him a valuable mentor and support for the young men at Live Strong House.
