She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns and depression, and lists codependency among her focus areas.

How sessions work
How Paige uses therapeutic approaches online
Paige draws on integrative practice with person-centred ideas at the heart of her work. Person-centred work focuses on listening, reflecting what is said and helping people notice their own choices. It can help with low mood, anxiety and difficulties in relationships by making space to name feelings and consider new responses.She also uses trauma-focused methods that help people process distressing experiences and reduce the impact of painful memories. These methods aim to change how past events are held in everyday life and can support people dealing with abuse, loss or persistent anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Paige treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss different methods based on a person’s needs, goals and preferences. She helps clients decide what to try and reviews progress together over time.
