More about Paul

  • 4 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

I am a qualified counsellor and member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, with extensive experience of helping people who suffer with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, low self-esteem, childhood trauma, self-harm, relationship difficulties and family conflict.

I am an integrative counsellor which means that I use a range of different psychotherapeutic approaches to help you explore the issues which are troubling you. My aim is to provide a safe and confidential space where you can explore, understand and make sense of the underlying issues which are causing you distress, and develop new insights which will enable you to heal and grow.

If you’ve never had counselling before then I know that taking the first step can be confusing and intimidating. So well done for getting this far and please rest assured that we will explore the issue which are troubling you with sensitivity, compassion and without judgement.

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.
