About Paige
Paige Whiteley is a counsellor with 15 years of post-qualifying experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and depression. Paige aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what matters most to them.
She trained at Joseph Priestley College, gaining a Diploma in Counselling in 2011, and later completed a BSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Leeds Beckett University in 2014.
Background and approach
She also holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Supervision from the University of Central Lancashire and a Postgraduate Certificate in Psychosexual Therapy. Paige is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Her approach is integrative, anchored in person-centred work.
That means she listens carefully to each person and draws on different techniques to match individual needs. Sessions focus on identifying limiting beliefs and practical ways to change them. Paige has experience in independent practice and in organisational settings.
Her early work included one-to-one therapeutic support for children in school, plus workshops for staff. She spent many years supporting adults with trauma at a mental health charity in South Yorkshire. In the therapy room she aims to build a strong working relationship so people can safely explore feelings about loss, fertility, abuse, long-term health conditions, and family difficulties.
She offers a steady, practical style that helps people find clearer ways to cope and move forward.

Online support
An integrative approach means combining methods to suit the person in front of you. That might include exploring thoughts that hold someone back, looking at attachment patterns, or practical exercises to manage stress and depression. Each plan is shaped around the person's needs and goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with people to choose methods that match their situation, goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, and messaging or live chat suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to use video. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and health commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
