Welcome to True Path Therapy
Welcome to True Path Therapy. I’m Paul, a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Rayleigh, Essex, offering support to individuals and couples across the UK—both in person and online. I’m here to help you navigate life’s challenges, explore what matters to you, and move toward a more meaningful, connected life.
About You
You might be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply worn down — as an individual, or in your relationship.
Maybe things have come to a head:
– A recent argument or crisis
– A growing disconnect with your partner
– Or the weight of a difficult life change like grief, a breakup, parenthood, or loss of identity
You could be feeling:
– Tired of always putting others first
– Struggling to say what you need
– Burnt out, anxious, or running on empty
Perhaps you're navigating:
– Ongoing tension or distance in your relationship
– The impact of past trauma or emotional neglect
– The uncertainty of who you are or where you're heading.
​
You might be questioning your purpose, wrestling with shame or guilt, or just longing to feel more connected — to yourself, to each other, or to the world around you.
​
Whatever brings you here, whether it’s new or something you’ve carried for a while, I believe change is possible.
​
Together, we can explore what’s going on and find a way forward that feels more true to who you are — or who you are together.

Why Me?
Are you looking for a straight-talking, down to earth therapist?
​
My name is Paul (that's me on the right) and I am a counsellor with extensive experience supporting individuals and those in relationships to deal with challenges and changes they may find themselves facing, helping them move toward greater clarity, connection and emotional wellbeing.
​
I am a modern practitioner, my practice is founded on professionalism and up-to-date techniques and ideas. I have a conversation with my clients, I'm not a blank screen and we don’t sit in silence. Counselling sessions don’t involve you lying on a couch looking at ink blots! I engage in a natural, relational way, I’m not a tea and sympathy therapist, I’m a challenging therapist, meaning that I facilitate change and believe that good quality therapy is transformative and goal orientated.
​
Counselling sessions take place in a comfortable and modern environment which reflects my way of working, straightforward, contemporary and relaxed.
​
Pick up the phone or drop me an email or WhatsApp. I will respond promptly and can work flexibly around your schedule.
