About Helping Hands Counselling Services

Helping Hands Counselling Services is a mental health practice on Albert Street in downtown London. It provides therapy and support to young adults, adults, seniors, women, men, and individuals who identify as LGBT2S+. The practice serves residents of London, Middlesex, Elgin, and Oxford Counties and provides virtual support to clients across Ontario. Therapeutic services address anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, PTSD, and suicidal ideation. Support is available for life transitions, relationship issues, family problems, and caregiver stress related to dementia or cancer diagnoses. Other services include ADHD support, anger management, body positivity, chronic pain, sleep issues, and support for first responders. The practice also provides couples counselling and addresses OCD, self-esteem, and spirituality challenges. Paul, a Registered Social Worker with over 25 years of experience, including twelve years providing therapy, leads the practice. He utilizes modalities such as CBT strategies alongside meditation and mindfulness practices. His perspective is informed by professional training and personal experiences with anxiety, depression, and loss. Clients can access support through in-person sessions at the downtown office or via virtual and telephone appointments. The business offers a free 30-minute meet and greet session and a free meditation resource for personal use. Online booking is available through a dedicated profile link.
