Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and a deeply personal one. You might not know where to begin or how to put into words what you're feeling. You might just know that something isn’t right or that you’re tired of carrying it all on your own.
Whatever’s brought you here, I want you to know that it matters and that you’re not alone.
I’m a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP creating a confidential space where you can feel safe, supported, and free to speak openly from wherever you feel most comfortable.
I work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, relationship struggles, childhood trauma, parental alienation, and the challenges of living with ADHD and neurodiversity. But more than any label or diagnosis, I work with you as a person. A real person, trying to cope with things that are often unseen or misunderstood.
My style is warm, down to earth, and deeply human. I’m not here to fix you or judge you. I’m here to walk alongside you as you begin to understand your own story in a new light. In a world where we’re often told to keep going, hold it together, or pretend we’re fine, I believe in creating a space where you can stop, exhale, and just be real.
One of the things clients often say is how easy it is to talk to me. Even online, they feel safe, relaxed, and able to be themselves, sometimes for the first time in a long time. I think that ease comes from how I show up. I’m fully present, I listen closely, and I genuinely care. It’s something I don’t take for granted. It’s a quiet strength I bring to every session.
I’ve always been fascinated by the parts of ourselves we learn to hide the fears, the pain, the thoughts we don’t dare say out loud. So often we bury difficult feelings to keep the peace, to protect others, or because we were never taught how to name them. But those buried emotions don’t disappear. They sit underneath the surface, and over time, they can weigh us down in ways we may not even realise.
Through therapy, I offer a space where those unspoken parts of you can be heard gently and safely. We can begin to untangle what’s been held inside, and in doing so, you may start to feel clearer, lighter, and more grounded in who you are. Therapy isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about coming home to yourself.
You don’t need to have the right words. You don’t need to be in crisis. You don’t have to go through it alone. If you’re ready, or even just curious, I’m here and I’d be honoured to walk with you

I have been doing my Therapy with Paul for the last couple of months and I can’t believe what a difference it has made to my life. For the first time ever I feel heard, not judged and safe and Paul has really helped me through a rough patch. I honestly can’t thank him enough.

Paul has been brilliant, I've done 3 sessions with him and already feel better in myself. He is a very professional individual that keeps the sessions to my pace and with a high level of personability. I can open up about anything with Paul and I know he will have a way to make sense of it all.
