About Paige

Paige Whiteley helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship pain, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and depression. She works in a calm, straightforward way so people can talk about what is hard and begin to make changes. Paige brings 15 years of experience in counselling across both independent practice and organisational settings.

She holds a BSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a Diploma in Counselling, and she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Background and approach

Her style is integrative with a person-centred core. That means she listens first, and then uses methods that suit each person’s needs. Sessions focus on identifying beliefs and patterns that get in the way, and on practical steps to shift them.

Paige has worked extensively with adults on trauma, loss and bereavement, fertility-related distress, relationship difficulties, depression, anxiety and abuse. She also has experience with issues linked to adoption and foster care, ageing, attachment, neurodiversity, chronic illness, codependency and sexual expression concerns.

Her background includes several years in a school setting delivering one-to-one support and workshops, plus over a decade working in a regional mental health charity supporting adults with trauma. That mix shaped her straightforward, compassionate approach. Sessions are offered from her independent practice in the United Kingdom and online.

She supports people who want clear, practical help to understand their feelings and start living differently.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Paige uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in a person-centred, integrative way. Person-centred work focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client, helping people feel understood and able to speak openly about difficult feelings. Integrative methods mean she draws on different approaches to match the client's needs, aiming to spot unhelpful beliefs and habits and work on changing them.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try first. The plan can change as therapy progresses so it fits how things are going and what the person needs next.

Online therapy is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which gives practical options for different situations. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and location while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
