About Paul
Paul Anne Quibael-Forman offers a warm, person-centred approach that helps people make sense of difficult feelings. She uses talking therapies to help clients cope with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and changes in life. Paul Anne writes and listens in plain language and aims to help people find practical ways forward.
She works from an integrative perspective that draws on Existential Therapy and Client-Centred ideas among other methods. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and on small, useful steps to manage problems day to day.
Background and approach
Clients learn skills to stay present, regulate emotions, and respond differently to old patterns. Her background includes eleven years of counselling experience. Paul Anne has supported people with self-esteem issues, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, anger and career stress.
She has also worked with those facing chronic illness, dissociation, and the effects of domestic violence and abandonment. Paul Anne takes a multicultural stance, speaking both English and Tagalog, and brings personal understanding as a Filipino living in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration, which appears as BACP in her credentials.
Sessions can use different formats to suit each person. The focus is collaborative: clients set the goals and the counsellor helps shape steps to reach them. The aim is to help people create steady, positive change over time.

Online support
How therapy methods translate to online sessions
Existential Therapy helps people reflect on meaning, choice and the challenges of daily life. Online sessions use conversation to identify values, confront fears and find ways to live with uncertainty. This approach can help with anxiety, feelings of emptiness and life transitions.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience and builds a supportive, non-judgemental relationship. The counsellor listens carefully and follows the client's pace so people can notice what feels important and try new ways of coping. This is useful for self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to match each person's goals and preferences. Decisions about techniques and pacing are made together, so the plan changes if something is not helping.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and body language, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, notes between sessions or people who prefer typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
