About Paul Hunt
Paul Hunt is a qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, burnout, relationship difficulties, childhood trauma, parental alienation, and the everyday challenges of living with ADHD and neurodiversity. Rather than focusing solely on labels or diagnoses, Paul treats each person as an individual, meeting them where they are with a warm, down-to-earth manner.
He offers a therapeutic space where it is acceptable to pause, breathe, and speak from wherever a person feels most comfortable. Paul does not aim to fix or judge; he accompanies people as they begin to understand their own stories and name feelings that have often been kept beneath the surface. Clients often say it is easy to talk to him and that even online they feel relaxed and able to be themselves. Paul brings full presence, careful listening, and genuine care to every session.
Through gentle exploration and practical tools, he helps people untangle persistent patterns and find clearer footing. Therapy with Paul is about coming back to oneself rather than becoming someone else. For those who are curious or ready to begin, Paul is available to walk alongside them through that process.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Paul draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness therapy in his online work. Client-centered therapy prioritises the person's own perspective and uses empathic listening and acceptance to help build self-esteem, explore identity, and improve relationships. CBT focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical strategies for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress. Mindfulness therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle attention to sensations and thoughts, which can support emotion regulation, reduce reactivity, and aid coping with burnout and ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Paul works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts his approach as therapy progresses. Registered professionals aim to tailor interventions so the client understands why particular techniques are suggested and can give feedback about what does and does not feel helpful.
Online therapy by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging increases flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, suit different communication styles, and maintain consistency in sessions for people located in the United Kingdom who need support without regular travel.
