About Paula
Paula Taylor is a counsellor who helps people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety and low self‑esteem. She supports those coping with grief, managing addictions, and negotiating career or parenting pressures. Paula works in English and practises in the United Kingdom.
Paula uses Emotionally‑Focused Therapy to help clients understand how emotions shape their reactions and relationships. She also draws on Client‑Centered Therapy to make sessions person‑led, and uses Mindfulness techniques to build awareness and calm.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to be practical and focused on what matters most to each person. She has three years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. That background informs a straightforward style that balances listening with clear, achievable steps.
Paula adapts the pace and tools to suit every person's needs rather than following a fixed formula. In a typical meeting she will listen first, then work with you to set simple goals. Conversations may include noticing emotional patterns, trying small experiments, and practising mindfulness exercises.
The emphasis is on small changes that add up over time. Paula describes her work as respectful, sensitive and compassionate. She encourages people to take one courageous step at a time and offers support through the early, often hardest, stages of change.

Online support
Approaches that fit into online therapy
Paula uses Emotionally‑Focused Therapy to help people notice and understand their emotional patterns and how these affect behaviour and relationships. EFT work often focuses on recognising strong feelings and then finding new, healthier responses that reduce conflict and distress.She also uses Client‑Centered Therapy which places the person's experience at the centre of sessions. This approach means conversations are driven by what you want to address, with the counsellor offering reflection and gentle guidance rather than directives.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paula will discuss options with you and help decide which methods suit your needs and goals. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and non‑verbal cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check‑ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping a steady continuity of care.
