Paula Clements helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and addiction. She also supports those facing low self-esteem, relationship strain, parenting pressures and major life changes. Paula works in straightforward ways that focus on practical steps and personal strengths.
She explains that clients are the experts in their own lives. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person. Paula listens without judgement and gently guides people towards clearer choices and coping strategies.
Background and approach
Her style blends several approaches. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people to accept difficult feelings while making values-based choices. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions.
Client-Centred Therapy treats the person with respect and warmth, and psychodynamic ideas are used to notice recurring patterns. Paula holds BACP and NCPS credentials and has four years of professional experience. She practises from New York and sees people in English.
She does not work with international clients at present. Online sessions can be by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Pricing varies by location and therapist availability and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, use the Start Therapy button, fill the short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions to suit your schedule.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and actions, so it can help with anxiety, depression, stress and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns still affect current behaviour and emotions, which can help people understand their responses in close relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy work. Paula will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs and preferences. That choice may shift over time as new issues appear or priorities change.
Online therapy offers practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer sessions, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and different locations, while still allowing ongoing therapeutic work with registered or accredited professionals.
