About Paul
Paul Prescott works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns. He is a counsellor who helps with self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions and grief. Paul also supports people with sleep problems, anger, depression, compassion fatigue and ADHD.
He works in English and accepts international clients. Paul uses a mix of practical and reflective methods. He aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can be heard and understood.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on making sense of what’s happening now and finding small, workable steps that fit each person’s life. With seven years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Paul brings steady professional experience to sessions. He describes his style as authentic and collaborative, walking alongside people rather than directing them.
In practice he draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based work. He adapts methods to suit the person’s needs and values rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. People can expect a straightforward process to begin: a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling.
Paul emphasises clarity and personal growth, and he supports clients as they test new ways of thinking and behaving.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Paul will discuss what matters most to the person and try methods that suit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a short check-in or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing, need brief ongoing support, or want flexible times. These options make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around busy lives.
