About me and my therapy practice
I’m Paula and I'm glad you found my page. People seek counselling for all kinds of reasons, but perhaps you feel overwhelmed, stressed, stuck or worried about something that is happening in your life, or just not coping and know something needs to change. I provide support and guidance towards emotional healing, personal growth and change.
What I can help with
I help people with anxiety related issues, low mood, low self esteem, major life transitions, attachment issues and bereavement. I have a keen interest in helping individuals going through relationship difficulties. Whether you are facing challenges in your intimate partnership, family dynamics, or friendships, I am here to help you make sense of what is happening, explore the emotional and psychological impact and find a way forward. Is the relationship making you unhappy and having a negative impact on your life? Some of these issues can cause feelings of guilt, shame and anger, leading to poor communication and boundaries. I will listen, support you and help you gain a better understanding of your feelings and thought processes.
I also have significant experience and additional training in bereavement counselling and I work alongside a bereavement support organisation. I understand the unique challenges that come with loss and grief as it can affect everyone so differently.
Practice description
I am a person centred counsellor offering a safe, confidential and warm environment and I welcome all of my clients with respect and acceptance. Counselling is tailored to your unique individual needs and I will be lead by you. Some people have a very clear idea about the issues they wish to explore, others have an internal feeling that something isn’t right, but can’t put their finger on it. Person centred counselling isn’t about giving advice or telling you what to do, but helping you to gain clarity, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and cultivate a greater sense of self compassion, wellbeing and empowerment. Whatever you are going through, I will be right beside you in a safe, supportive and caring way.
In addition to my professional qualifications, I have a deep understanding of some of the complex and varied roles that we often take on in our lives. I believe that my lived experience can be a valuable asset in creating a space where you feel heard, understood and supported.
My practice is based in Didsbury and I have created a private, comfortable and calming environment. It is a non judgemental, nurturing space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings and problems. I am empathetic and will always be open and honest in our relationship. I have been described as calming, with a warm and gentle nature.
