About Paolo
Paolo De Luca is a psychodynamic psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. He offers individual therapy for adults and provides a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about what matters most. Sessions are conducted in English and Italian. Paolo holds BACP accreditation and has eight years of clinical experience.
Paolo works with people facing a wide range of issues. These include anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family problems, grief and loss, panic attacks, and trauma. He also supports those dealing with addiction, career strain, eating concerns, anger, and the effects of personality or attachment difficulties.
In sessions he invites people to bring immediate worries and also to look at underlying themes. He listens closely and helps people notice patterns they might not see alone. The aim is to build awareness, self-confidence and healthier ways of living rather than quick fixes.
Paolo offers open-ended psychotherapy when that fits the client’s needs. He discusses how to work together during an initial consultation so the plan reflects each person’s goals. He accepts international clients and will talk through language preferences at the start.
Practical matters such as scheduling and the session process are arranged after the Start Therapy questionnaire is completed. Paolo uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and will explain next steps when you book an initial session.
How Paolo's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It gives people space to speak freely while the counsellor offers empathy and acceptance to help them make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach can be useful for issues like self-esteem, relationship worries and life changes.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns and early influences that shape current behaviour. It encourages reflection on recurring themes and emotional responses, which can help with trauma, attachment problems and long-standing relationship difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paolo will discuss goals, preferences and how you like to work. Together you will decide which approach or combination suits your needs and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make regular check-ins easier to keep and allow flexible timing around work or family commitments. The therapist accepts international clients, but prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.
