About Paolo
Paolo De Luca is a psychodynamic counsellor with eight years' experience working with adults. He offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about worries and painful experiences. Sessions are available in English and Italian and can be arranged online or in person in the United Kingdom.
Paolo helps people who are struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and grief. He also supports those dealing with relationship strains, trauma, panic attacks and issues linked to personality and identity.
Background and approach
He listens closely and encourages exploration of thoughts and feelings that might be hard to name. He uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that come up again and again in life. That can make connections between past experiences and present reactions clearer.
Paolo also works in a client-centred way, so sessions follow the person’s pace and priorities. Therapy can be time-limited or open-ended depending on what the person needs and agrees with Paolo. He aims to help people build awareness, self-confidence and more workable ways of relating to themselves and others.
Small changes in understanding can make daily life feel easier. People often come to explore attachment, family of origin issues, intimacy concerns, or difficulties with anger and control. He also offers support for addiction-related problems, eating concerns, and coping with major life changes.

Approaches Paolo lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Paolo will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust the style of sessions as needed. Together they decide whether to focus on exploring past patterns, practical coping, or a mix of both.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people see visual cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into different routines.
