About Paolo De Luca

Paolo De Luca is a psychodynamic psychotherapist who offers individual therapy for adults and creates a calm, non-judgmental environment where people can explore their concerns. He works with adults from a variety of backgrounds and specialises in a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, loss and bereavement, relationship and family difficulties, traumatic experiences, life-stage crises, panic attacks, sexual abuse, questions around sexuality, and personality-related concerns.

Therapy with Paolo focuses on both current difficulties and the deeper patterns that influence thoughts, feelings and relationships. He listens closely and helps clients uncover themes that may be outside conscious awareness, supporting reflection on past experiences and present reactions. This process aims to build self-understanding and confidence so clients can consider healthier, more satisfying ways of living.

Paolo offers open-ended psychotherapy when this suits a client's needs and preferences, and he discusses the length and structure of work during an initial consultation. He holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and provides therapy in both English and Italian. Meetings can take place in person or online, and the format can be agreed at the first appointment.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions with Paolo De Luca

Client-Centered Therapy is focused on the client's experience and perspective. It involves warm, empathic listening and supports people to explore their feelings and choices at their own pace - a useful approach for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and life transitions.

Psychodynamic Therapy explores unconscious patterns and past influences that shape current behaviour and relationships. It encourages reflection on recurring themes and emotional conflicts, which can help when working with trauma, attachment difficulties and long-standing relational patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Paolo works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods feel most helpful, adapting the work to fit the client's goals, needs and preferences rather than following a fixed protocol.

Online therapy with Paolo is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to suit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular sessions from home or elsewhere, support continuity when life is busy or travel is difficult, and allow people to select the format that best matches how they prefer to communicate with a registered professional.
