About Paul
Paul Currie offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and mood challenges. He writes plainly and listens carefully to what matters most to each person. Paul works to make the first steps easier and to help people find clearer footing when life feels overwhelming.
Paul trained with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings five years of practice to his work. He uses an integrative way of working, which means he adapts methods to match what each person needs rather than using a single fixed approach.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what you bring and what you feel ready to address. In sessions Paul will help people talk through painful experiences, manage emotions like anger or guilt, and build practical strategies for sleep, mood and daily coping. He also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, eating and intimacy-related concerns, and issues linked to chronic pain or illness.
He aims to restore hope and increase self-compassion over time. Paul believes that personal difficulties can be a route to growth when handled with care and attention. He encourages small, achievable steps and collaborative goal setting so work feels manageable.
He aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can explore change at their own pace. Sessions are offered in English and take place online with video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging options. Paul does not take international clients and works from the United Kingdom.

Online support
For trauma-related issues he may use trauma-informed ways of working that help people process painful memories at a pace they can manage and reduce the intensity of distressing reactions. For mood and anxiety concerns he will apply strategies that teach breathing, relaxation and structured ways of breaking down overwhelming thoughts into manageable steps.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Paul will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If something does not feel right it can be changed, and progress is checked together throughout therapy.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation; phone sessions suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to use a camera. Live chat and text messaging can help with shorter check-ins, regular support between sessions or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or mobility limitations while keeping focus on steady progress.
