More about Paul
- 5 years' experience

I am an Integrative Counsellor. I offer active listening, empathy, congruence and a non-judgmental experience. I am also a qualified CBT Practitioner .
I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients to explore difficulties they are facing so that they are empowered to overcome challenges and can look forward to better days ahead. As an Integrative Counsellor, I provide a progressive form of psychotherapy that combines different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the needs of the individual client. I modify standard treatments to fill in development gaps that affect each client in different ways and allows me to offer a more flexible and inclusive approach to treatment than more traditional, singular forms of psychotherapy.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
