About me and my therapy practice
I am Paula Lord i am a BACP integrative psychotherapist in south ribble Preston in Lancashire My integrative style brings together the best elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic and Person-Centred Therapy. This blend of approaches allows me to address each client’s challenges from various perspectives, helping them to build self-awareness and achieve their therapeutic goals.
I also offer somatic therapy, focusing on how trauma is held within the body and how it can be safely processed and released. Working from a polyvagal-informed perspective, I use a bottom-up approach that helps clients reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and develop a greater sense of safety, resilience, and wellbeing. By understanding the body’s responses to stress and trauma, we can work together to support lasting healing beyond traditional talk therapy
I believe that the therapeutic relationship is key to my clients achieving their goals. I am, therefore, responsible for ensuring that therapy is a safe and secure place for you. Therapy is tailored to each individual client
