Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Paul draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing to tailor support to each person's needs. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive relationship in which the therapist listens and helps clients explore their feelings and values - it is useful for building self-understanding and improving confidence. CBT focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and is commonly used for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns by offering practical tools for daily life. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative method for strengthening a person’s own motivation to change, and it is especially helpful for issues like addiction and behaviour change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Paul collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and circumstances, adapting techniques as progress is made and priorities shift. This flexible, client-centered process helps ensure therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers practical benefits - sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging increase flexibility and make it easier to fit support into busy lives or across time zones. These options expand access to licensed professionals and allow therapy to continue consistently while accommodating different schedules and comfort levels.
