Its been a great journey so far with Paolo. 
I feel understood during the conversation and feel like on a productive journey together. The talks provide a solid foundation for understanding myself and dealnig with my everyday struggles.

Paolo has been a proactive listener, supportive and understanding from day 1. In many occasions, he has understood what I was intending to express better than myself. After only 3 sessions I already feel better and started making positive changes in my life. Thanks Paolo!

More about Paolo

  • 8 years' experience
  • Male
  • BACP

I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist offering individual therapy for adults of all ages. I offer a private, supportive and non-judgmental space for you to think and speak about your concerns.

I work for the NHS and in private practice with clients from different backgrounds and presenting with a variety of issues, including low self-esteem, anxiety and depression, loss and bereavement, relationship or family issues, traumatic experiences, life-stage crisis, panic attacks, sexual abuse, low self-esteem, sexuality, personality disorder.

Throughout psychotherapy, you will have the opportunity to raise issues that are currently on your mind and to explore underlying matters and themes, some of which you may not be completely aware. I will listen to you closely and will work with you to uncover the difficult areas of your life, and to think about things you might not ordinarily think about. My purpose is to support people to make positive changes and to reach their full potential in their lives, through gaining awareness and self-confidence and allowing healthier and happier ways of living.

I offer open/ended psychotherapy, depending on your needs and how we agree to work together.

I work both in English and Italian and I give the opportunity to my clients to meet in person as well as online. All this can be discussed at an initial consultation.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
