More about Paul

  • 5 years' experience

  • NCPS

I am an Integrative Counsellor. I offer active listening, empathy, congruence and a non-judgmental experience. I am also a qualified CBT Practitioner .

I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients to explore difficulties they are facing so that they are empowered to overcome challenges and can look forward to better days ahead. As an Integrative Counsellor, I provide a progressive form of psychotherapy that combines different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the needs of the individual client. I modify standard treatments to fill in development gaps that affect each client in different ways and allows me to offer a more flexible and inclusive approach to treatment than more traditional, singular forms of psychotherapy.

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.
