About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Paul listens with sensitivity. Replies with apt , sometimes surprising comments that bring out productive reflection. Good sessions.

Reviewed March 2023

When I first spoke to Paul, I was dealing with severe feelings of loss, anger and anxiety, that were debilitating and all consuming. Within just a few weeks, I learnt how to deal with these feelings, improve my sleep and feel genuine happiness again. Paul has been a massive part of this transition and has been an incredible support throughout so would highly recommend.

Paul is like a guy I now look at and appreciate his experience and expertise in life in general. He's truely a great guy and will listen and will talk about his experience to help understand and advice you with your progress. Wouldn't trade this guy for any other person to talk to every week. Makes me feel comfortable and after the session I feel this sense of relief like paul actually listened and shared his insights too. Overall great guy would love to get to know him better
