About Pauline
Pauline Rodgers works with adults and young people on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, addictions and trauma. She uses an integrative approach that draws on different therapy styles to match what each person needs. Pauline is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has ten years' experience.
She helps people talk through difficulties with intimacy, parenting, workplace pressures and self-esteem. Pauline also addresses issues such as attachment difficulties, carer stress, family of origin problems, guilt and shame, and midlife challenges. She works with clients who are navigating prejudice, multicultural concerns and LGBT-related issues.
Pauline describes her practice as flexible and practical. She combines elements from attachment-based work, client-centred methods and solution-focused techniques rather than following a single model. Sessions concentrate on what is most helpful now and on small, manageable changes that fit everyday life.
Her style emphasises listening, clarifying patterns and testing out different ways of responding. That might mean looking at past relationships to understand current reactions or setting short-term goals to build forward momentum. The aim is to identify actions that reduce distress and improve relationships and coping.
Her experience includes supporting people after trauma and helping those dealing with compassion fatigue and workplace strain. Pauline works in English and practises from the United Kingdom. To begin, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange a first session.
How her approaches work for online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how these shape current feelings and reactions; it can help when relationship history affects trust, intimacy or caregiving roles. Client-centred therapy focuses on the client's perspective, with the counsellor listening and reflecting so people can find their own solutions to issues like low self-esteem or midlife change. Solution-focused methods concentrate on small, practical steps and setting short-term goals to change unhelpful routines and manage stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Pauline works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the work as progress is made. Clients and the counsellor review what is useful and adjust the focus together.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose whether to work visually or by voice, and to plan sessions at times that fit their day.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
