About Paul
Paul Anne Quibael-Forman offers a warm, person-focused way of working that puts the client's experience first. She uses a client-centred approach to help people talk through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and issues with self-esteem. Paul Anne writes in plain language and aims to help people build practical skills that make daily life easier.
She believes therapy is a collaborative process rather than giving instructions. Sessions focus on helping people notice what matters to them, try new ways of coping, and find solutions that fit their life.
Background and approach
The work often includes looking at how past experiences shape current feelings and relationships. With 11 years of experience, Paul Anne has worked across child, adolescent and adult counselling. She brings an integrative style, drawing on different therapeutic ideas to match what each person needs.
This means conversations may look different depending on the concern and the person. As a Filipino living in the United Kingdom, she takes a multicultural approach and can offer therapy in English and Tagalog. She aims to make room for cultural background and identity when it matters to the person.
Her stated areas of focus include relationship and family issues, grief, addictions, bipolar and compassion fatigue, along with a wide range of related concerns such as body image, abandonment and first responder issues. She encourages people to take the step of asking for help and to explore what change might look like for them.

How Paul Anne's approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says, helping them feel heard and understood while they work through stress or relationship concerns. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility and can help when people face major life changes or questions about purpose. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people find their own reasons to change, often used for addictions or when motivation feels low.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, needs and preferences and together they will choose methods that feel helpful. This is a collaborative process and may change as therapy proceeds.
The listing does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when life is hectic. It can also make sessions possible for people in different locations, including international clients, while the therapist and client decide what works best for their schedule and circumstances.
