Background and approach

Over 11 years she has supported people with issues such as self-esteem, grief, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and compassion fatigue. As a Filipino living in the United Kingdom she uses a multicultural lens in her work and offers counselling in English and Tagalog.

She has experience with a wide range of concerns including chronic pain and illness, dissociation, domestic violence, first responder issues, and family of origin problems. Her background includes work with children, adolescents and adults in counselling roles. Paul Anne uses approaches that include Client-Centred Therapy, Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy to match how someone prefers to work.

She aims to help people notice patterns, try small changes and rebuild a sense of control over daily life. Sessions focus on practical steps alongside personal reflection. The aim is to leave people with tools they can use between meetings and a clearer sense of direction for their next steps.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy is about listening and following the person's lead. The counsellor reflects what someone says and helps them find their own answers, which can suit people dealing with anxiety or low self-esteem. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories people tell about their lives and separates the person from the problem, useful for concerns like trauma, identity and relationship difficulties. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change by exploring their values and boosting motivation for practical steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor and client decide together which methods to try based on the person's goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, with practical exercises or deeper reflection introduced when helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video calls are close to face-to-face and allow visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a break, live chat offers quick check-ins and text messaging suits shorter, ongoing support. These options make therapy more flexible and let people choose what works best for their routine and circumstances.
