Hello, welcome to my website.

My name is Paul Smith and I have been a Counsellor since 2010.

I have always understood the importance of talking through problems with someone and as far back as I can remember people have felt able to talk with me and it is something that has always left me feeling good. Connecting with others on a deeper level and helping them is, and always has been, a very important part of who I am.

When I had counselling myself it really helped me, I was quite amazed  for the first time I felt heard and understood. I felt free, liberated almost, being  given the space to explore and understand myself better, discovering and making the changes that I needed. It was a turning point in my life.

 

In my late thirties I decided I needed a career change, I was unfulfilled and wanted to do something that more reflected who I was as a person, so became inspired to train as a Counsellor. It has been the most wonderful thing to see the changes it can bring to peoples lives, it is an honour to be with people as they take those steps into self exploration, and sharing the space is , to me, very special.

​

 Doing something that I love to do together with the professional skills I learnt and my years of experience has enabled me to help and support more people move forward with their lives. I offer myself to you as someone who cares deeply about your mental health and well being, who will support you as you navigate your way through whatever is troubling you. I am here because my main motivation is that I care, and love to help people.

Feel free to flick through my website, I hope it answers all your questions, if not, please do get in touch.

Thank you for visiting my website.

Paul
