I am an experienced Consultant Clinical Psychologist in both the NHS and private practice. My approach is all about helping you to understand and improve your mental health . The sessions will be structured and focused toward understanding why you feel the way you do (your own mental health blueprint), how to recognise unhelpful patterns or triggers in everyday life and successful skills to self regulate. You will be equipped, not only to understand why you feel the way you do, but also how to work toward healthier ways of managing your mental health.

Hello, I'm Paula and I have over 30 years NHS experience, working in mental health services, working alongside people struggling with a wide range of mental health, psychological, emotional, and relational difficulties, including complex trauma.

Are you tired of holding it all together? Of putting on a brave face when there’s so much beneath the surface that nobody can see? You go to work, you do your job, and to everyone around you, you seem “fine”. They don’t see the pain you’re carrying or the anxiety that creeps in late at night. They have no idea of the doubt you grapple with or the pressure you’re under.
I’m a qualified psychotherapist who helps people manage the impact of stress, anxiety and trauma. I’m also down-to-earth, deeply empathetic and know how hard it can be to share those more vulnerable parts of ourselves we keep hidden.

Many people carry more than they show, feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by anxiety, low mood, or past experiences. They want a safe, non-judgemental space to speak freely and understand themselves better. They’re seeking clarity, confidence, healthier boundaries, and more ease in daily life. Most of all, they want to feel like themselves again, and they’re reaching out because they know they don’t have to do it alone.
