About Paula Talling
Her practice also includes somatic processing and mindfulness, paying attention to how thoughts and feelings show up in the body and using that awareness as part of healing. Paula believes that patterns formed in earlier life shape how adults relate to themselves and others, and she explores those influences within therapy to help clients understand and change recurring difficulties.
Paula has experience supporting people with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, low motivation, self-esteem and confidence issues, and depression. She also works with relationship and family concerns, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, and major life changes, and offers focused support for issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, dissociation, and panic attacks.
She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and emotions can be voiced and explored. Paula offers practical tools alongside reflective work to empower people to take steps toward a more fulfilling and resilient life, and she is committed to supporting clients through change at a pace that suits them.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online support
Attachment-based work explores how early relationships shape current ways of connecting and reacting. It helps people understand patterns like fear of abandonment, difficulty trusting others, or repeated conflict in relationships, and supports building more secure ways of relating.
Client-centred therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the process, offering empathetic, non-directive support that helps clients find their own solutions and build self-trust. This approach is useful for issues such as low self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm.
Somatic therapy brings attention to bodily sensations and uses gentle body-based awareness alongside talk work to help process stress, trauma responses, and persistent anxiety. It can be especially helpful when emotions are experienced strongly in the body or when traditional talk therapy feels stuck.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy journey. Paula will work collaboratively with each person to identify the methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the approach over time so clients feel supported and understood.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone appointments, and shorter interactions or ongoing check-ins can happen via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent support around work, family responsibilities, or mobility limitations while maintaining continuity of care with a registered professional.
