Paul Weekes
Integrative counsellorAbout Me
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile. I’m an integrative counsellor and registered member of the BACP. I hold a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling which draws upon approaches from both person-centred and psychodynamic modalities. I continue to develop my practice in areas of mindfulness and cognitive approaches.
I believe in the space between stimulus and response being an opportunity for change. Moments in which exists a potential for movement away from struggle, pain, and suffering. An opportunity to let go, find peace, understanding, acceptance, new perspectives, and relinquish narratives that once served us well but now bear little relationship to our authentic selves.
I recognise the courage of each person who chooses to sit opposite me and share their feelings, thoughts, and experiences. The courage to embark or continue the journey of healing, self-exploration, and becoming.
