Pauline Rodgers

Pauline Rodgers is a counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has around ten years' experience working with adults and young people. Pauline helps people who are struggling with stress, anger, relationships, loss, low mood and other life challenges.

She works in an integrative way, drawing on Attachment-Based, Client-Centred and Solution-Focused approaches. That means she adapts how she works to fit each person rather than using one fixed method. Sessions are practical and conversational, with time to talk about feelings and to try small changes that can make a difference.

Pauline has supported people through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and addictions, and she pays attention to issues such as communication problems, caregiver stress and identity or discrimination concerns. Her approach aims to help clients understand patterns from the past and try new ways of relating and coping in the present.

In the room she aims to listen without judgement and to help people set realistic goals for therapy. She uses short-term solution-focused work when that fits, and deeper attachment-informed discussion when more exploration is needed. The focus is on what a person wants to change and on practical steps to move forward.

To begin, clients use the platform's Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire. From there they can schedule sessions according to Pauline's availability.

How Pauline's approaches shape online counselling

Pauline draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide her work. Attachment-informed discussion looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and can help with issues like intimacy, anger and family conflict. Client-Centred work focuses on listening, reflecting and helping a person feel understood so they can make their own choices. Solution-Focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and realistic goals to create change more quickly.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Pauline will work collaboratively to identify which combination of approaches suits a client's needs, goals and preferences. Sessions can shift between exploring deeper patterns and trying short-term, goal-oriented work as required by the person she is supporting.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week, saving travel time and allowing a shorter check-in when that is useful. It can also make it easier to attend from different locations and to choose what feels manageable for each appointment. Registered and accredited professionals, including therapists using these approaches, often find online work helps people keep therapy consistent alongside everyday life.
