Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Christchurch
I work with those facing stress and life issues, with organisations & leaders (see Leaders.DrPaul.Online) and supervise professionals. Beyond just supportive counselling, being a Registered Clinical Psychologist, I offer structured assessment, diagnosis where needed, and strong evidence-based solutions. Clients' comments: 'Paul was able to articulate what was going on for me'. 'I highly recommend him'. His approach was 'methodical, thoughtful, interesting and implementable, and made me feel comfortable and listened to'. 'Seeing Paul, I am now more confident, relaxed and a better person as a result'. More at Feedback.DrPaul.Online.

Primarily, I draw from Integrative, Person-Centred, CBT, ACT, Narrative, Brief Psychodynamic, and Mindfulness-Based therapies.
I am passionate about helping people break through barriers that are commonly imposed by the dominant culture while finding ways to work more comfortably both inside and outside ‘the box’ to achieve goals. I've worked with clients in settings ranging from prison to university, and you can count on my acceptance ‘as you are’ without judgment while helping you recognize and recover your own strengths. I bring expertise to support you with a wide variety of concerns, and I have particularly enjoyed working with clients whose lived experience includes neurodiversity, gender diversity, and relationship diversity.

I genuinely enjoy working with people and provide a safe space, so you can tell me whatever you need to without fear of judgment. It's a pretty special privilege to be able to work with people on their mental health and wellbeing. Together, we will develop a shared understanding of your challenges, strengths and areas you wish to see change in. We will then use psychological science and evidence-based therapy to enhance your skills to help you on your way. As a Clinical Psychologist I can provide diagnosis if appropriate.
