Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hi I’m Paula. and firstly a warm welcome, it is important to find the right counselor for you. So please take the time to read through my profile and be assured i will endeavor to work with you in the best way possible.
I am licensed in the UK with 3 years of professional work experience in counselling.
I have experience in helping clients overcome stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse and gain self esteem and confidence,
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
Everyone, at times, can find life a struggle. Whether its events that we are finding difficulty with in the ‘here and now’ or past issues that are still holding us back. Sometimes we can feel “stuck” in life and can find it hard to decide which road to take.
Anxiety, depression, stress and fear may become overwhelming, or run too deeply, for you to talk to family or friends, or you may worry about the impact of disclosure with loved ones. Or you may find that you and your partner cannot seem to be able to resolve your relationship issues or difficulties on your own. If you want to talk about what is happening in your life, I can provide you with a safe space to be yourself, to speak out those unspoken thoughts and put words to those feelings. Having the space to talk through your problems confidentially with an understanding, non-judgmental and empathetic professional can make all the difference to your quality of life.
I believe that everyone is unique and as a result have different issues. Therefore different issues need different approaches. I use an integrative approach which uses the best bits from many counselling modalities and is adaptable and flexible depending on your type of issue.
Before becoming a counselor i worked in the voluntary sector helping vulnerable people with a whole range of different and complex issues. I co-created and delivered an award winning Mental Health Program called ‘Take the Weight of your Mind’ which aim was to build self-esteem, emotional resilience and empowerment.
I facilitate and enhance personal growth and insight with the ultimate goal of empowering you to change and move forward in life. I also aim to enable you to maintain what you have learnt in therapy, I will help you to develop new skills and strategies so you have the tools to cope when new problems arise, so you have more control of your life.
My ethos is all around personal empowerment and often this entails changing your thinking about yourself and the world around you. I believe that if you can change your thinking you can change your life.
The right help can bring your life back into balance and help you be properly mindful of your well-being.

Many people ask whether remote sessions can make a real difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.
One major benefit is flexibility – clients can connect in the way that suits them best, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That adaptability makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to access support from different locations.
Each therapist offering online services is a licensed professional, and clients may choose to switch therapists at any time if they feel a different fit would be helpful. Online work can provide consistent access to skilled therapists while accommodating varied schedules and communication preferences.
