Many thanks for this Ann, and it was an absolute pleasure working with you as well and seeing how quickly you turned things around.

My sessions with Paula were very effective and empowering. Her warm nature and understanding definitely made it easier for me to commit to improving myself. Her approach and practical techniques that she taught me made me feel empowered and more capable of making my vision of my life a reality. It was incredible how more confident and capable I feel after just 4 sessions. More...

Paula is wonderful. She explains how the brain works and makes sense of why you think in a certain way and offers strategies to change them that really work. I feel transformed in a way that I didn't think was possible. I have the confidence to be myself and not let anxiety and rumination control my life leading to better sleep and more social opportunities. More...

I had the pleasure of working with Paula as my coach, and I can't recommend her enough. From the very beginning, her warm and approachable demeanor helped me feel comfortable and supported. Paula has a unique ability to create a safe space where I felt free to explore my thoughts and emotions.

The methods she used were incredibly practical and effective in helping me understand and manage my emotions, which was a game changer for me. I’ve gained a newfound ability to stay grounded, motivated and appreciate the simple joys in life. It’s amazing how much clarity and peace of mind I’ve found through our sessions and by practicing her techniques.

If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares and can guide you on your journey, Paula is the perfect choice. I'm so grateful for the positive impact she’s had on my life! More...

I reached out to Paula when I was going through a really sticky period in my life. The sessions I have had have helped me to focus on the good and positive things. I've also learned some really useful techniques I can use when I experience stressful situations. I would highly recommend Paula to anyone. More...

really good to work with you Sylvia and thank you for the lovely review.

I’ve had a great experience working with Paula, her sessions are well structured whilst still giving me the flexibility to discuss anything I feel is relevant. I’ve learnt coping mechanisms, the science behind what’s happening in my brain and the benefit of a positive mindset. Paula has helped massively with my difficulty with sleep and I couldn’t recommend her enough! More...

thanks for this review and especially for mentioning the sleep aspect, this is such a major part of recovery, thank you Lauren

In our first session Paula was so interesting explaining the brain and how it functions and our primitive past (cavemen etc) on the second meeting I woke up earlier, ready, logged on and looking forward to the session which I enjoyed so much, Paula's use of furry animals to explain complicated issues is a joy to behold. I cant wait to see her again and in fact "I can and I will " see her again. More...

I wanted to take a moment to share my experience with Paula. She has been incredibly supportive throughout my journey. I've been practicing heart math techniques that she introduced me to, which have been invaluable, especially in challenging situations at work.

Thanks to her guidance, I received the all-clear from my doctor and was able to obtain my provisional license. I've even started my driving lessons! Her encouragement and expertise have made a significant difference in my progress. I can't thank her enough for her time and support. Highly recommend! More...

you have been a brilliant student of the process and it is wonderful to see the real you emerge. Congratulations on the driving lessons - really wonderful news

I’ve seen therapists before, but Paula is totally different. She helped me get to the root cause of my stress and anxiety on the very first session. I’ve also had a number of ‘lightbulb’ moments in subsequent sessions that have been totally unexpected. As a result, I’ve been able to make tough decisions in a calm and focused manner and, at the same time, maintaining or improving relationships with the people around me. I now see things from a different angle, which has actually been life changing. Paula’s solution focussed approach works so well and so quickly and with such a lovely manner. I would certainly recommend Paula to anyone. More...

Her advice will always guide me through my issues.
Paula is a wonderful and patient person and I highly recommend for anyone to get in touch with Paula for help. More...

sorry for the late response but just to say how enjoyable our sessions were and so pleased that you achieved the results you wanted

Paula is a genius! I worked with her for 3 sessions before I saw transformational change in my life. It sounds incredible that it can happen that fast, but it was like that for me. When I came to Paula I was at the end of my rope, unable to make a decision about how to move forward in my life. Working with Paula "unstuck" me from the past and really helped me to move forward. I can't recommend her highly enough. Solution Focused Therapy, was not something I had done before, but it worked wonders for me. If you're reading this, I really encourage you to try working with Paula. More...

I found these sessions extremely helpful in allowing me to get back to being me. They allowed me to reflect on where I was and own my feelings. What I had to expect and how to deal with a range of feelings and emotions and how to move forward and become stronger and be more like my normal self but with additional skills to be able to deal with things moving forward without falling back into a dark place.

this is really good to know Nigel, thanks for making the effort and taking the time at the start of the sessions

In the first session, Paula outlines how the brain works in a very clear and understandable manner. I immediately began to think differently about how my brain works, what I am inputting into my brain and what impact that has on me. She applied her knowledge and techniques to my own personal situations. I had 6 sessions with Paula and I am now a lot more intentional, I am present and I am able to focus on the positive things in my life. More...

Thank you so much to Paula she has really helped me the last few weeks. After going to Paula feeling stressed, severely anxious and angry her sessions have helped me massively.
The calming techniques and explaining what is actually happening as I go through these feelings and emotions made me understand exactly what is happening and how to control it & bring myself back back down from the overwhelming emotion I was feeling. Having clearer thoughts now going forward and feeling so much happier after just a few sessions. Thank you so much Paula. More...

thank you so much for this Kush, only just seen it. It has been a pleasure working with you as well and to see how inspirational you have become to others

Having travailed a vast sea of medicore therapists, Paula is like a bright lighthouse guiding you to a safe shore. She cuts through to the vital parts from Day One and provided me with such valuable tools to help me regulate my behaviour over only a few sessions.
I would heartily recommend her to anyone who's feeling a bit lost, a bit angry and doesn't quite know what to do. She will light up a pathway to a far more fulfilling future. More...

thanks for this Alexander, it is really great to have this at the outset of our session, much appreciated

I met Paula through Bark a year ago when I was struggling with excessive stress at work. On sending an email, Paula was swift in ringing back to book a discovery session with me. Over the course of the next few months my mental Health, stress management and decision making abilities massively improved. Thanks to Paula's scientific, practical and human approach to dealing with the root cause of the issues.

Paula explains the fundamentals very clearly, provides long term techniques to managing emotional triggers, follows up and is full of knowledge and experience. This, combined with her perceptiveness and friendliness makes her a coach and counsellor with very unique skills.

I highly recommend Paula for anyone who's struggling with stress, relationships and direction. More...

Thanks for this Rob, it was a pleasure and so pleased you gained so much

Our 13 year old daughter Sophie has been suffering a severe episode of depression and anxiety to a point where she had completely withdrawn from normality including school and friendship groups. We sought help from numerous therapists but Sophie's condition was so low that she was unable to talk with anybody.
I was explaining our situation with a friend who recommended Paula as an option. Out of desperation, we contacted Paula who thankfully agreed to speak with Sophie. It was extremely difficult to start with but Paula's patience and incredible gift of understanding people and how to relate to them finally started to work. Paula does not focus on the past but looks forward with a great sense of positivity, optimism and hope. We started to see improvements in Sophie's mood almost immediately, and we are now at a point where Sophie is growing in confidence daily, she is overcoming her fears and anxieties with pride and is a million miles away from where she was before meeting with Paula. We can not thank Paula enough for everything she has done and would recommend her without hesitation. More...

Thank you so much for this Adrian, it has been an absolute pleasure watching Sophie blossom to be the person she really is rather than the shadow of herself. This has been intensified by the relief you both felt - as a parent, I know only too well that a child's suffering is so much harder to deal with than our own. Thank you for this lovely review, much appreciated.

Paula came recommended to me by a friend. I've found my sessions so helpful and have taken so much from them. Paula is always able to offer me advice and useful and straightforward solutions to any challenges I'm faced with. The techniques I've learned from Paula to use day to day are tools I will always have access to. Paula's visualisation techniques helped me in understanding how the mind works and why we might react the way we do. I feel I've come a long way since starting my sessions with Paula and I have a lot to thank her for. Cannot recommend Paula enough!
Thank you :) More...
