Who am I

Passionate Professional Personal

Hi, I’m Paul — I'm glad you found your way here. I am a Person-Centred Counsellor, Clinical Supervisor, Couples Counsellor and integrative therapist working with individuals, couples and groups. My toolkit includes PCE-CfD, EMDR, CBT, IPT, and a blend of other approaches like IFS (Internal Family Systems), EFT (Emotion-Focused Therapy), Somatic Therapy, and Brainspotting. I am a counselling tutor also. Most of all I am a human, and have walked dark paths too. I tailor therapy to meet you where you are — because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all.

I’m an accredited member of the BACP and EMDR association, my specialist areas include trauma (PTSD), depression, anxiety (in all its forms), and relationship work.

What sets me apart? I’m warm, real, and deeply human. I bring enthusiasm, empathy, and a non-judgmental presence to every session. I build genuine rapport quickly, helping people reconnect with their strengths and move forward in meaningful ways.

Therapy with me is a two-way street. You bring your lived experience; I bring my training and insight. Together, we co-create a space where growth happens — safely, collaboratively, and at your pace.

I believe a huge part of the relationship alliance is the therapy. That’s why I offer a relaxed, confidential environment where you can explore what’s weighing you down and begin to find clarity, resilience, and relief.

I work with adults (18+) and couples. If you’re ready to begin, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Multi model Approach - What I can help with

Matched to your need - not a default

Need help to move forward in life? I use an array of counselling and coaching skills to provide an holistic approach that give you the tools for success. Working delicately and confidentiality with what you bring, you will be treated with respect and empathy. I don't believe in a one size fits all approach to therapy, your counselling will be as individual are you are.

Issues I commonly help with:

- Depression and low mood

- Anxiety (in its various forms - OCD, general anxiety, worry management, panic, social anxiety etc)

- Trauma and PTSD/CPTSD reactions

- Complex and puzzling emotional responses (hard feeling to manage daily)

- Unhelpful thought patterns

- Stress and anger management

- Relationship problems and communication struggles

- Breaking patterns of behavior

- Life transitions

- Building independence, resilience and hope

- Coaching (coming soon)

I offer clinical supervision for both trained counsellors and trainee
