Paul Green, NCPS

Paul Green offers a person-centred approach to counselling. He focuses on what each person brings to the session and supports them to find their own solutions. Paul presents information clearly and listens attentively so people feel heard and understood.

Paul has five years of professional experience. Before moving into counselling he spent eight years working in education. That role involved supporting the mental and emotional health of young people in a school setting.

He also volunteered with the Samaritans for four years. That experience developed his listening skills and his ability to provide emotional support during difficult moments.

Paul specialises in counselling people aged 14 to 25 and uses a person-centred framework for those sessions. In practice this means talking through whatever matters most to the client, at the client’s pace, without giving advice or directing outcomes.

In addition to youth-focused work, Paul meets adults who prefer a person-centred style of counselling. He addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, trauma and grief.

Sessions consider everyday challenges such as parenting, career changes, sleep issues and workplace problems. He can also support people exploring identity, communication difficulties, loneliness, ADHD, autistic traits and questions about sexuality.

How client-centred work adapts to online counselling

Client-centred therapy places the client's concerns and pace at the centre of each session. The therapist listens without directing or offering advice, and follows the topics the person brings up. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, relationship worries and identity questions where being heard matters a great deal.

Person-centred counselling also supports young people who need space to explore feelings. Sessions focus on the client's experience and help them make sense of their own thoughts. That can help with issues such as stress, grief, anger and questions about life purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and will adapt the style as those needs become clearer. Clients and the therapist decide together how best to proceed during the first few meetings.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in between appointments. It can also make it simpler to arrange shorter or more flexible sessions when needed, depending on what the therapist currently offers.
