About Paul
Paul Weeden is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, career difficulties, addictions and relationship concerns. He also supports people coping with grief, parenting challenges, intimacy-related problems, sleeping difficulties, anger and life transitions.
Paul uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. He helps people talk through what is happening, teaches breathing and relaxation techniques, and looks at daily routines that affect mood and stress. He explains how small changes in habits and interests can make managing overwhelm easier.
His practice draws on client-centred ways of working to focus on each person's experience. He also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns, and solution-focused techniques to set practical steps forward. Mindfulness tools and reflective psychodynamic ideas may be introduced to understand underlying patterns.
Paul often encourages a healthier balance between work and personal life. He supports planning for routine, creative interests and consistent habits as part of coping. He sees lifestyle adjustments as one part of addressing stress and low mood.
He has experience supporting people with ADHD, attachment and abandonment concerns, autism and neurodiversity-related issues, and difficulties around communication, commitment or blended family situations. Paul works in English and accepts international clients; prospective clients should confirm session options before booking.
How Paul’s approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says. It helps people feel understood and clarifies their own priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and practical behaviours. It is used to target anxiety, low mood and habits that keep problems going. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and improve moment-to-moment coping.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Paul collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. He will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the person’s needs and preferences.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because available formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten a check-in when time is limited, or avoid travel on a workday. Many people find that worksheets, breathing exercises and short practical tasks transfer well to online appointments. Confirm the session options and schedule that suit you when you book.
