About Paul

Paul Weeden meets people who are feeling overwhelmed and stuck. He speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps that can ease daily stress and recurring worry. Paul aims to help visitors find clearer thinking, steadier moods, and routines that support wellbeing.

Paul has 15 years of experience in counselling and holds BACP accreditation, which is noted as a professional registration in the UK. He uses straightforward tools such as breathing and relaxation techniques to help reduce stress and manage overwhelm.

Background and approach

Sessions often include discussion of small, achievable changes clients can try between meetings. He pays attention to work-life balance and everyday habits. Paul encourages improving routines, creative interests, and healthy rhythms that make coping easier.

He also helps people think through career concerns, low mood, motivation, and self-esteem in simple, practical ways. People who are managing grief, relationship strain, or changes at home may find his approach useful. He also has experience supporting parents and young people around separation, routines and academic planning, and with areas such as sleep, intimacy-related issues and addiction concerns.

Paul draws on several therapy approaches to suit different needs. He blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness practices. The aim is to work together on realistic goals and useful changes that fit each person’s life.

Online support

Paul combines client-centred counselling with cognitive behavioural and mindfulness methods to address everyday problems. Client-centred counselling means the therapist listens attentively and helps people find their own solutions, which suits people wanting a supportive space to talk. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing small behavioural changes to improve mood and reduce anxiety. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and manage stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they stay focused on realistic steps and measurable progress.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into daily life. Video calls are close to an in-person meeting and suit full conversations. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow brief ongoing support and are handy for people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options give practical ways to access help while keeping appointments manageable.
