  • I pride myself on creating a safe, warm and relaxed space to explore and chat about thoughts, feelings, behaviours and experiences. 

Testimonials

  • "Paul grounds me because he isn’t judgemental or assuming. He listens to me and offers ways to think about or approach thoughts, feelings, circumstances and experiences. He explains various theories and beliefs that he and/or others consider, which I can then consider in my internal process, and these have been the tools to help with my progress so far. I am very appreciative of Paul’s approach with my situation."

​

  • ​"Paul has been fantastic, he listens and is great to talk to. In just the first couple of sessions I have really come to understand my triggers in relation to alcohol and how to deal with them in a way that relates to my specific situation. I could not recommend him highly enough. Thank you Paul."

​

  • "Paul is a considerate and easy to talk to therapist and takes time to explain and guide your thoughts in a healthy and understandable manner."

​

  • ​"Paul has really taken the time to get to know me, help me and just listen. I really need someone who’s going to be constructive and level headed. He has helped me in so many ways."
