About Paula
Paula Taylor is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in confidence, or stuck after loss. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure. Paula emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion in sessions.
She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person's priorities at the heart of each meeting. That means conversations are guided by what matters most to the client, and plans are shaped around their goals. Paula also uses emotionally-focused ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how feelings affect behaviour.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with calming racing thoughts and increasing present-moment control. Solution-focused strategies are used when people want brief, practical ways to move forward and build momentum. Sessions balance listening, practical steps and gentle challenge.
Paula has three years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She adapts pace and tone to each person, whether someone needs steady support through grief or short-term help to tackle anxiety.
If you are considering therapy, Paula asks you to be open about what you hope to change. She will work with you to set small, achievable goals and revisit them as your needs shift.
Approaches that translate to online counselling
Client-centred therapy places the client's needs and priorities at the centre of sessions and focuses on building a trusting relationship. This approach helps when someone needs space to be heard and to shape their own goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in how people react to strong feelings and helps shift unhelpful cycles in relationships or personal responses.Mindfulness work teaches simple practices to calm racing thoughts and increase awareness of the present moment; it can be helpful alongside the other approaches for anxiety and stress. Paula will discuss these approaches with each person and pick elements that fit their situation, goals and preferences. Finding the right mix is part of the therapy process and she works alongside clients to decide what feels most useful.
The practical upside of online therapy is that it can fit more easily into a busy week and reduce travel time, making it simpler to keep appointments. If you are considering sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since the profile does not list specific formats. Together you can plan session length and frequency to suit everyday life and to support steady progress.
