About Paula
Paula offers practical support for stress, anxiety and depression, and for people coping with addiction and grief. She also helps with relationship difficulties, intimacy-related concerns and the after-effects of trauma and abuse. Fertility and pregnancy-related worries are among the issues she can discuss in sessions.
Her way of working is straightforward and collaborative. Paula listens first, then helps clients identify small steps that feel achievable. Sessions may include techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness to manage overwhelming thoughts and feelings.
She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. Hypnotherapy is used sometimes where a person and Paula agree it might help focus attention or change unhelpful habits. The overall aim is to build on strengths already present in each person's story.
Paula encourages people to take the first step when they feel ready. She supports practical goal setting and follows the pace each person prefers. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Paula uses client-centred work to create a respectful, person-focused space where people can describe their concerns and decide goals. This approach helps with life changes, relationship worries and emotional strain by keeping the person's priorities central.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. CBT offers practical tools for anxiety, low mood and stress, such as simple exercises to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Paula will work with each person to test methods and adapt them to individual needs and aims. The choice of techniques is collaborative and may change as progress is made.
Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and appointments. It can shorten travel time and allow quicker check-ins when needed, while still using the same talking therapies and exercises that would be used face to face.
