About Paul
Paul Currie is a counsellor who aims to help people navigate times of confusion, overwhelm and pain. He works in a straightforward way, listening first and then agreeing simple steps that feel manageable. Paul writes from personal experience about how therapy supported his own recovery, and he offers that same steady attention to others.
Paul uses an integrative approach, blending techniques to suit each person who comes to him. Sessions begin with what the client brings and move at a pace the client is comfortable with.
Background and approach
He focuses on practical changes as well as understanding why patterns keep repeating. Clients come for many reasons, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, sleep and eating issues, anger, and coping with life changes. He also supports people facing chronic pain, illness or disability and those dealing with guilt, shame or isolation.
Paul pays attention to mood disorders and problems linked to attention and focus. With five years of practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, he blends professional skills with a down-to-earth manner. Sessions can be by video, phone, live chat or text messaging, depending on what suits the client.
Paul encourages honest conversation and small experiments between sessions. His aim is to help people find more ease and meaning in day-to-day life. If someone wants to ask questions before starting, he invites them to send a message to begin the conversation.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Paul discusses options with each person and adapts methods as work progresses. He aims to set clear goals together and to try simple experiments between sessions so people can see what helps in real life.
Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are an option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, reflection between sessions or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options give flexibility for work, family life and different energy levels while keeping therapy practical and accessible.
