About Paul

Paul Laskowski is a counsellor with seven years' experience in mental health work. He holds a Bachelor's Degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Bath Spa University and is a BACP member. Paul focuses on creating a straightforward, supportive space where men and other clients can talk about the issues that matter to them.

He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, low mood and trauma. He also supports those dealing with relationship strain, grief, self‑esteem problems and difficulties around intimacy. Sessions are aimed at helping people rebuild boundaries and develop skills to cope with life changes.

Paul uses an integrative style that draws on several counselling methods to suit each person. His practice includes client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques, solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing. This blend means sessions can be practical and action-oriented while also making room for personal reflection.

Therapy sessions typically run for 30 to 45 minutes and are shaped by the individual’s goals. Paul says it is important to check that the match feels right, and he will help arrange an alternative referral if needed. He aims to make sessions clear, respectful and focused on what the client wants to achieve.

People choosing him can expect plain language and a calm approach to difficult topics. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling details to make sure they fit their needs.

How Paul's approaches fit with online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult feelings while taking steps that reflect your values; it can help with anxiety, stress and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking patterns and develops practical coping strategies for issues like depression, anxiety and sleep problems. Client‑Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, offering empathic listening and space to clarify goals and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul will discuss what matters to you, try methods that suit your needs, and adjust the plan as you both learn what helps. That collaborative process aims to match tools and conversation to your goals rather than imposing a single method.

The practical benefits of remote work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around daily life. Online or remote sessions can make it simpler to have a shorter check-in during a lunch break or to avoid travel time. The biography notes availability for 30 to 45 minute live sessions; please confirm the current session formats and scheduling options before booking so you know what will work best for you.
