Clinical Psychologist

Paul graduated in 2010 from the University of Otago, with a PhD and a Post Graduate Diploma in Clinical Psychology. His main area of research was social anxiety, and he still considers this area of practice a particular specialty, alongside sleep disorders, anxiety and depression.

Paul uses a variety of methods to treat clients, but now works mainly with acceptance and commitment therapy. He focuses on developing collaborative and respectful relationships with clients, and emphasises working at a pace that the client feels comfortable with.
