About Paul

Paul Currie greets people who feel overwhelmed, stuck or worn out. He aims to make the first steps simple and practical. Sessions focus on what is troubling you now and what you want to change next.

Paul draws on five years of counselling experience to help with stress, anxiety and low mood. He also supports people facing trauma, grief, addiction and shifts in relationships. He helps with sleep and eating concerns, anger, ADHD and mood challenges including bipolar.

Background and approach

He offers work around chronic pain, illness and separation too. Paul describes his way of working as flexible and tailored. He listens for what matters most to each person, then uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques suited to that situation.

Conversations are straightforward and paced to each person’s comfort and readiness. Clients can expect practical steps alongside reflective talk. Sessions often include looking at day-to-day patterns, coping strategies and small experiments to try between meetings.

Paul encourages self-compassion and building simple habits that make life more manageable. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, commonly known as BACP. Paul practises in the United Kingdom and provides sessions in English.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Paul lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How evidence-based techniques work online

Paul often draws on a small number of well-established therapeutic approaches and adapts them to the online setting. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns in thoughts and behaviour and testing small changes in daily life; it helps with anxiety, low mood and stress by breaking down problems into manageable steps. Another approach emphasises processing difficult memories and learning new ways to respond to triggers, which can help people coping with trauma and abuse.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Paul will listen to your goals and preferences, explain options in plain language and agree together on what to try first. He adjusts methods over time based on what is helpful and what you feel comfortable doing between sessions.

Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and build rapport; phone sessions work if bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, shorter sessions or people who express themselves better in writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
