Kia ora and hello! As we head into 2025 I have some availability for both couples counselling and individuals. I also offer a free initial ten minute consultation by telephone. I'm a registered counsellor with experience in addressing all kinds of concerns;  including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, anger management, stress and navigating life transitions. I have a particular interest and experience in assisting men and women who have suffered personal or intergenerational trauma, along with relationship issues.

I am both a clinical psychologist and organisation strategist. Working with individuals and organisations, including the cross-over between personal and professional wellbeing/careers. Comments from my wide range of clients include: 'I was quite astounded with how spot on Paul was, he was able to articulate what was going on for me'. 'I highly recommend him'. Paul worked in a 'methodical, thoughtful, interesting and implementable way, and made me feel comfortable and listened to'. 'Seeing Paul, there has been a noticeable difference in both my home and work life; I am now more confident, relaxed and a better person as a result'.

Having been trained as both a psychotherapist and a Yoga psychology teacher, I view life’s experiences as integral to our soul’s journey toward wholeness. By learning from our past and transcending suffering, we cultivate greater awareness, awaken our inner light, uncover our purpose, and recognize our innate qualities & gifts. My approach integrates the scientific foundations of Western psychology—including psychodynamic & transpersonal perspectives—with the wisdom of Eastern and Indigenous traditions, such as Yoga philosophy & mindfulness. If this perspective resonates with you, I would be honoured to support you on your journey.

Struggling with emotional eating, binge eating, or restrictive habits might make you feel frustrated or ashamed that you can't ‘just fix it’. You could experience emotional highs and lows, or a sense of disconnect from your body and identity when all you want is to feel at peace in your body and self. Whether you’re navigating a complicated relationship with food, feeling disconnected from yourself, or burnt out from giving too much for too long. Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to figure everything out on your own, I’m here to help.
