About Paul Hunt

Paul Hunt understands that beginning therapy can feel like a significant and intimate step. Many people arrive not knowing where to start or how to name what they are feeling, and Paul meets that uncertainty with gentle attention and practical support.

He works with individuals facing anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, relationship difficulties, childhood trauma, parental alienation, ADHD and neurodiversity related challenges. Beyond diagnostic labels, Paul treats each person as an individual - someone navigating struggles that are often unseen or misunderstood.

Paul is a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). He creates a calm, non-judgmental space where clients can speak openly from wherever they feel most comfortable.

His approach is warm, down to earth, and deeply human. He does not set out to fix people; instead he accompanies them as they begin to understand their experiences in new ways. In a culture that often encourages people to keep going and pretend they are fine, Paul offers a place to pause, breathe, and be real.

Clients often say they find it easy to talk with him. Even in online sessions many report feeling relaxed and able to be themselves. Paul brings focused presence, careful listening, and genuine care to every session, helping clients gently explore feelings they may have learned to hide so they can feel clearer, lighter, and more grounded in who they are.

There is no need to have the right words or to be in crisis to begin. For those who are ready, or simply curious, Paul is available and would be honoured to walk alongside them on their journey.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support

Paul Hunt commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Therapy in his work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing empathetic, non-directive support so people can explore their feelings and build self-understanding - it is useful for relationship issues, self-esteem and navigating major life changes. CBT is a practical, structured approach that helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, often supporting people with anxiety, depression and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations with less reactivity, which can reduce overwhelm and improve emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Paul works collaboratively to identify what will suit each individual. He tailors techniques to a person’s goals, preferences and life circumstances rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method, so clients and therapist can adjust the focus over time.

Online therapy with Paul is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limits or those who prefer speaking from home. These options make it easier to maintain continuity during life transitions, fit sessions around work or parenting, and access consistent support from wherever the client is located.
