About Paul
Paul Anne Quibael-Forman is a counsellor who uses a person-centred, collaborative style to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and find practical ways to cope. Sessions are offered in English and Tagalog and reflect her multicultural perspective as a Filipino living in the United Kingdom.
With eleven years of experience, Paul Anne blends approaches rather than relying on one method. She draws on Client-Centred and Narrative work to help people make sense of their stories. Motivational Interviewing and Trauma-Focused ideas guide practical steps for change and healing.
She supports people facing relationship strain, self-esteem struggles, grief and life changes, as well as challenges linked to work, addiction and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include body image, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication problems and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. First responder issues and domestic violence are also within her remit.
In sessions she aims to help clients develop skills to manage symptoms, stay present and try new ways of responding to old patterns. The work is conversational and exploratory, with attention to what matters most to each person. Practical exercises and reflective discussion are used as needed.
Paul Anne invites people to take a first step even when it feels hard. She encourages clients to be curious about themselves and to set small, achievable goals. Choosing therapy is framed as a gradual process of discovery rather than a one-off fix.
How these approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and acceptance so people can speak openly about stress, anxiety and life transitions. It helps where someone needs a steady, supportive space to explore feelings and decide on next steps.Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the impact of traumatic experiences through paced work and practical coping skills. It can help people who carry distress after abuse, accidents or other traumatic events.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor works collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person's goals and comfort level. She adapts the mix of person-centred, narrative and motivational techniques to match what the client needs and prefers.
The practical benefits of online work include greater flexibility to fit sessions around work and family life, and easier access for those living at a distance from services. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy manageable and relevant to everyday routines rather than promising a particular service.
