About Paul

Paul Hunt recognises that starting therapy can be a significant and often intimidating step. Many people arrive unsure how to name what they are feeling or simply tired of carrying their struggles alone. Whatever has led someone to seek help, Paul treats it as important and worthy of attention.

He works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, relationship difficulties, childhood trauma, parental alienation, and the challenges that come with ADHD and neurodiversity. Beyond diagnostic labels, Paul focuses on the person in front of him - an individual trying to make sense of experiences that are frequently unseen or misunderstood.

Paul is a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is the professional body for counselling in the UK. His practice offers a space where clients can speak openly from wherever they feel most comfortable.

His approach is warm, down to earth, and deeply human. He does not set out to fix or judge; instead he accompanies clients as they re-examine their story and discover new perspectives. Many find it unexpectedly easy to talk with him, including in online sessions, and appreciate his full presence, careful listening, and genuine care.

Paul is drawn to the parts of ourselves we hide - the fears, the pain, the thoughts we avoid. Through gentle exploration those held feelings can be named and untangled, often leading to greater clarity and a stronger sense of self. You do not need the right words or to be in crisis to start. If someone is ready or curious, Paul would be honoured to walk alongside them.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on meeting people with empathy and acceptance, helping them explore their feelings and values at their own pace. It is useful for relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, grief, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns through practical strategies and structured exercises - it can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and gentle attention to thoughts and sensations, offering tools for managing overwhelm, stress, and emotional reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Paul works collaboratively with each person to discover what fits best with their needs, goals, and preferences. He adapts methods over time and discusses options so clients can make informed choices about their care.

Online therapy with Paul is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible and accessible for people with busy lives or mobility limits. These options allow clients to connect from home or other familiar places while working with licensed professionals and therapists to make meaningful progress at a pace that suits them.
