About Paula
Paula trained and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She brings four years of professional experience to her work and draws on a mix of therapy styles to suit different needs. Sessions focus on what matters most to each person and move at a pace they find manageable.
Her approach centres on listening and helping clients identify small, practical steps they can try between sessions. Paula uses ideas from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and act in line with those values. Attachment-based ideas help when relationships and early experiences shape current struggles.
Paula aims to work collaboratively. She encourages clients to say what helps and what doesn’t, and adapts methods as therapy progresses. This includes paying attention to mood, sleep, eating and everyday routines that affect wellbeing.
People often come to Paula with issues linked to major life changes, caregiving stress, or long-term patterns like codependency and control problems. She also supports people dealing with illness, ageing concerns and neurodiversity-related challenges. The goal is clearer thinking and more workable ways to cope day to day.

Therapy approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on what matters to you and taking small steps towards those values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and helps people make different choices in how they relate to others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and techniques can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
Please confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow people to join from different locations. It can also make shorter check-ins simpler when schedules are tight, or allow sessions without needing to be on camera if that suits the person better.
