Dr. Paul Deutsch, LPC

Paul helped me through a tough time in my life. His approach to therapy for me was tackling my problems head on and validating my experience when I felt I couldn’t. His no-nonsense, compassionate demeanor created a very safe space to discuss hard topics. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Deutsch has been an absolute fantastic fit. Kind, compassionate, but challenging me to where and when I need to be challenged. I am super grateful for his expertise, and I am rewriting this as I am returning to re-engage with him a bit more after gaining resolution with some past issues.

Paul supported me through one of my hardest times. Struggling with either eating disorder, mood issues or other impulsive behaviours, he always been by my side, providing guidance and adding lightness and a bit of fun to our sessions. Life is already too serious, so talking with someone who truly gets me, listens to me, and doesn’t judge me neither does try to make me do things I don’t want to do is a relief.

Paul is very good. I've been seeing him for quite a while now. He's helped me to develop strategies to deal with persistent anxiety and depression. I've had more success with his talk therapy than with any of the meds I've taken over the years. It has been slow and hard work, but I am in an objectively better state than I was before therapy.

I feel Dr. Deutsch is an absolute expert in his field and it fills me with joy knowing there are professionals knowing how to operate in this sensitive field of online therapy. Usually it takes me a while to be able to open up but I actually got the core point to work on in our first session. Thank you very much for your insights.

I can’t recommend online therapy compared to in person therapy but this therapist is an absolute gem.

Dr. Deutsch has been very helpful during a stressful time in family court, with an ex that does not follow agreements reliably.

I would definitely recommend him.

He challenges you in your beliefs and gives you a clear structure to work your way through your problems.
He makes me feel good that he really understands what the challenge is about and not just working through his toolbox.

Paul Deutsch is a wonderful therapist, he knows how to make you feel at ease with a little humour or a gentle smile.
But he understood the root of my problems straight away...
I have recommended this application to my family and friends. I love that I can be in the comfort of my own home and not waiting in a clinical lounge before my appointment.

Written on Jan 17, 2021 after therapy with Paul for 11 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, self esteem, and coping with life changes

He is encouraging of my progress, and is good at reminding me that I have resources within me that can help me.

Written on Dec 27, 2020 after therapy with Paul for 5 months

I decided to sign up with BetterHelp when I had reached a point where, deep down, I knew I couldn't tackle my challenges on my own anymore. I've worked with Paul for the past six months and he's provided just what I needed to make progress in my personal life, in the professional world, with politics and my immediate family, and even in my marriage. For example, he suggested a helpful daily tool in our first session that I still use to this day. He's incredibly thought-provoking, which has helped me to approach my challenges in a way I never could've all by myself. But he also gives me plenty of space to explore on my own and put my personal spin on things in order to build up my confidence. Paul also tells it like it is, which is a style of counseling I appreciate because I don't want to wallow around in the darkness. I want to make real progress. I'm so grateful we were paired up. It's been a year, as we all know, and I'm proud of myself for taking the initiative to go that extra step to support my mental health. Six months ago, I felt very alone, and pretty dark about my future. With Paul's help, I'm hopeful and confident that I'll be able to tackle what the next six months throws at me!

I’ve only had one session so far with Paul but I am so pleased! He is exactly the right therapist for me and I am looking forward to my upcoming sessions.

Written on Aug 22, 2020 after therapy with Paul for 2 weeks

Paul is not only stereotypically good listener, but also intuitive enough to understand without having to over explaining or even explain at all sometimes. He shares his knowledge and interacts on a human level with no patronisation or judgement.
He is not at all a passive therapist, or in any means rigid in his approach- he references and uses energy, psychology modules and directs language all in a holistic and comprehensible psychoanalysis and psychotherapy in an attempt to healing and positive change.
For ever grateful to have stumbled on his profile

Excellent counsellor

Written on Jul 23, 2020 after therapy with Paul for 1 month on issues concerning relationship issues, and anger management

I have been working with Paul for a couple of months now and I don’t think I can speak highly enough of him and my experience so far. We regularly call and we message when something comes up for me that I’d like to discuss. I knew very quickly that I was talking to a professional and that I could trust his advice and insight. He remembers details very well and has helped me through a variety of scenarios. He offers me new perspectives while also reassuring me that he’s there for me and on my side through the things that we chat about. As serious as some of the topics are, Paul creates a non-judgmental, light-hearted and often humorous atmosphere which helps me feel comfortable discussing things that are difficult. I feel so lucky to have been paired with someone like him.

Paul has been working with me on my challenges over the last few months, dealing with depression, anxiety as well as a partner with bipolar disorder, his no-nonsense, honest approach works for my personality type. I feel that I’ve made good progress with learning to set realistic boundaries for myself as well as communicate my standards in my work and personal life. If you’re looking for a someone who tells it as it is and doesn’t sugar coat reality - he’s your guy. His ultimate interest is ensuring you’re looking after yourself and your mental state first and it really does come through in his style of coaching.
