Background and approach

She also helps people facing issues around addiction, eating concerns, bipolar mood challenges and career pressure. Paula adapts each session to the person she is talking with. Sessions are shaped around a clear plan agreed together, and she aims to keep things simple and doable.

Her style is respectful, calm and sensitive, with an emphasis on what will help in daily life. Common topics she addresses include family conflict, parenting strain, LGBT concerns, anger and ADHD-related difficulties. Paula uses a mix of talking techniques and mindful exercises to help people make small changes that build over time.

If someone is unsure where to begin, Paula offers a gentle first step that focuses on immediate priorities and practical next actions. She encourages people to name one small goal and then work towards it at a manageable pace.

How Paula’s approaches work online

Paula uses client-centred work to focus each session on the person's own priorities. That means conversations start with what matters most to the individual and move at their pace, helping them notice what changes feel useful. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when strong feelings get in the way of daily life; it supports understanding and working through intense emotions so relationships with others and with oneself feel steadier.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Paula will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working together. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made, so the approach evolves around what helps in practice rather than being fixed from the start.

Online sessions can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and shared exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat lets people check in quickly and messaging suits brief updates or between-session notes. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and everyday life while still getting regular support.
