About Paul
Paul Laskowski holds a Bachelor of Arts in Counselling and Psychotherapy from Bath Spa University and has seven years' experience in mental health services. He works with people who are struggling with trauma, addiction, low mood and anxiety. Paul describes his approach as collaborative and responsive to each person’s situation.
He uses an integrative style that draws from several established methods. In sessions he helps people re-establish healthy boundaries and learn coping skills for day-to-day life.
Background and approach
The emphasis is on practical steps that people can try between meetings. Paul primarily uses a person-centred stance alongside cognitive behavioural techniques, solution-focused ideas and motivational interviewing. That mix lets him tailor sessions to what someone needs in the moment rather than sticking to a single method.
Conversations are intended to be compassionate and individualised. If either person feels the match is not right, he will support a referral to another counsellor. Paul offers 30 to 45 minute live sessions.

How Paul works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paul will discuss goals, preferences and the kinds of support needed, and then suggest methods to try together. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as the therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular meetings around work or caring commitments, and shorter live sessions are an option he offers. Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how he currently conducts appointments.
