Hello, my name is Paula and I am a licensed Counsellor in England with 6 years of professional work experience. I am an Integrative Counsellor, using skills from different approaches., Person
Centred, CBT, Gestalt and Solution focussed therapy. I use somatic processing, listening to our bodies and include mindfulness in my work. I believe our upbringing and earlier years have a profound effect on the adults we become, and I work with this element in therapy. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I also have experience working with depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you on your journey. I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Great therapist who is really understanding.
Paula is fantastic, I'm so glad I found her
Paula has been absolutely incredible from day one. She was able to quickly identify the areas i needed to work on and she has been incredibly supportive and helpful. Cannot praise her enough!
Paula is truly incredible, she validates my inner thoughts without me needing to vocalise what I am actually thinking. I truly feel safe in my sessions
I would highly recommend Paula to anyone, although I am at the start of my therapy journey with her she has given me hope for the future and such confidence she is the best person to support me along the way.
I've had a great experience with Paula, I came to her in a difficult period of my life and she not only helped me through this period but also gave me insights into myself and techniques to help me cope in the future no matter what heads my way. I've now got tools to better handle situations and the confidence to ask for help again if necessary.
Paula’s approach is incredibly empathetic and easy to talk to. She has been great with unpacking some issues and creating an actionable approach to tackling things. I highly recommend Paula!
Amazing
I’m thoroughly enjoying my chats with Paula, they leave me feeling excited for the week and give me things to focus on that help to develop myself
Amazing. I don't like using many words.
