About Paige
Paige Whiteley is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, trauma and depression. She names codependency among her focus areas and aims to help people notice and change patterns that hold them back. Paige works in a straightforward, person-centred way and keeps sessions grounded and practical.
Paige draws on more than 15 years of post-qualifying experience in both private and organisational settings. She completed a Diploma in Counselling at Joseph Priestley College in 2011, then a Bachelor of Science in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Leeds Beckett University in 2014. She also holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Supervision from UCLAN and a post-graduate certificate in psychosexual therapy.
Her background includes school-based one-to-one work with children aged five to 11 and twelve years at a South Yorkshire mental health charity supporting adults with trauma. More recently she has practised as a coach and has training in EMDR and coaching approaches. These experiences inform an integrative style that adapts to individual needs.
In sessions she aims to build a strong working relationship where people can talk through difficult feelings and practical problems. She looks to identify limiting beliefs and offers ways to test and change unhelpful patterns. The goal is to help people manage anxiety, process loss and trauma, and improve everyday relationships.
Paige sees people in her private practice in the United Kingdom and works in English. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, recorded as BACP.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Paige uses an integrative, person-centred foundation alongside evidence-based techniques to address trauma and relationship patterns. Person-centred work focuses on listening, validation and building a reliable working relationship, which helps people feel heard and understood. EMDR-style trauma work aims to help people process distressing memories and reduce their intensity through structured reconnection and guided processing.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels workable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy vary by provider, so confirm available formats before booking. Many people find online arrangements make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow quicker access to support from different locations within the United Kingdom. If a session needs to be shorter, or use audio only, those options can make check-ins simpler and less demanding. Registered or accredited professionals can help clarify which approach and session arrangements will best match a person’s needs.
