Paul Standbrook has been helping my 20 year old daughter to overcome her anxious fears. He has helped her a great deal already after just a couple of sessions and we plan to continue to use his services. His approach was just the kind my daughter is comfortable with, he is calm and so understanding. Face to face visits at his beautiful and comfy home just added to the relaxed atmosphere and after each session my daughter left feeling really positive about her next steps. Highly recommend 👌 More...

From his door opening Paul made me feel at ease , the tools he has given me to allow me to thrive though the most traumatic episode in my life are invaluable . I opted for face to face sessions and found the studio at Paul’s home a welcoming warm safe place .It is evident Paul offers his coaching and counselling services in order to help people in difficult times and genuinely cares, in all of my sessions Paul did not clock watch , I felt understood safe and will be forever grateful for Paul’s coaching and guidance , would thoroughly recommend More...

I never got to use them, I chose not to after getting annoyed at their repeated contacting me.
Reply from Paul Standbrook
Hi Gareth, Thank you for your feedback - I'm sorry you found our contact with you annoying. Having checked our records I see that our contacts were as follows: We emailed you on 10 January, after you had expressed interest in our service and requested contact from us, explaining how we work and that we would follow up with a telephone call. We called you twice on 13 January but the line went dead each time with no answer. We called once on 15 January and left a voicemail inviting you to contact us if you still required support. We then sent a final courtesy email on 19 January, explaining that we would now close your file. This is in line with our usual process, designed to ensure our clients have received a response by email and by telephone. I do hope you have found the support you were looking for. Best wishes for your future wellbeing Paul and Sam Jai Ma

Our sessions were in the studio at Paul’s house and it was a lovely, comfortable setting where I really felt at ease and welcome. The true value of the 5 sessions I had with Paul simply can’t be explained. I found each session more helpful than the last and left feeling a real difference every time. The sessions were tailored to what I would benefit from, and they were exactly right for me. I have learnt skills and tools that I now use in my every day life. I learnt that life happens, and it’s how we deal with it that counts. I feel so much better prepared to cope with what comes my way and I know myself better than I ever have done before. I am so grateful to Paul and how much he helped me to help myself. More...

I had 5 sessions with Paul at Jai Ma and found them extremely useful.
Each session was structured in a clear and professional way which helped me evaluate things in my life i had not thought about before and has helped provide me with key development targets that will help me both personally and professionally.
Paul is a very nice and personable guy and the sessions did not feel like other counselling/ coaching sessions where the counsellor would ‘clock watch’. I think every session we went over our allocated time which highlights Paul’s support throughout the process.
Thanks again
