Paul Cromie
Experienced person-centred counsellor for life changes
About Paul
Paul Cromie is an integrative counsellor with four years’ experience. He holds NCPS accreditation as an Accredited Member and works from the United Kingdom. He brings a background in broadcasting and journalism to his counselling practice, and aims to make the first steps into therapy straightforward and respectful.
He keeps sessions person-centred so the client sets the agenda. Early meetings begin with a short counselling contract and then move into open conversation.
Background and approach
Paul listens for what matters most and helps people talk through stress, anxiety, career questions, self-esteem and sexuality at a pace they control. Paul also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, body image and communication problems.
He works with people dealing with panic attacks, social anxiety, guilt and shame, and those who are navigating life changes and questions about life purpose. His approach combines Client-Centred Therapy with elements from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. That mix is used practically - noticing unhelpful thoughts, building small skills, and practising breathing or awareness exercises when useful.
Before counselling, Paul’s career included daily news journalism, radio broadcasting and teaching broadcasting skills at a college. That experience informs a clear, conversational style in sessions. He asks questions, reflects back and helps people find manageable next steps.
Sessions are offered in English and Paul does not take international clients. People who want to begin can use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to his availability.

How therapy approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's priorities first. Sessions focus on what the client brings that day, with the counsellor reflecting and asking gentle questions to help people make sense of their feelings. This suits worries about self-esteem, identity and relationships where the person wants to be heard.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and actions. It includes practical steps such as spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviours, which can help with panic, social anxiety and persistent worry.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they will try ways of working that fit those needs. That collaborative decision-making helps shape whether more person-centred talking, CBT tasks, or mindfulness exercises are used.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between commitments.
