About Paul
Paul Kemp is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, career questions and depression. Paul uses straightforward conversation to help clients make sense of difficult moments and consider practical next steps.
He explains what he is able to support and what he does not cover so people know what to expect. That includes not taking on work with addiction or compulsive sexual behaviours.
Background and approach
He creates space for clients to speak without feeling judged and aims for clear, respectful communication. Paul combines several therapeutic styles to match each person’s needs. He draws from client-centred work to keep sessions focused on the person’s own priorities.
He also uses elements of mindfulness to support coping with strong emotions and present-moment stress. Narrative ideas are used to help people tell their story differently and spot patterns that get in the way. Some sessions may include Internal Family Systems concepts to help people understand inner parts and how they relate to each other.
Sessions aim to be practical and conversational. Paul supports people exploring changes in work, dealing with loss, managing compassion fatigue, and building confidence. He encourages small steps and realistic goals so progress is easier to notice.

Online support
Paul views finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will discuss different ways of working and agree what feels most helpful based on a person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative choice is revisited as needs change during therapy.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions let conversations feel closer to face-to-face while phone work can fit a short break or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, reflective writing or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on clear, practical support.
