Paul Regan CBT Therapist Birmingham: Experienced, Empathic, Effective

Paul Regan CBT Therapist Birmingham brings over two decades of lived and professional experience into every therapy session. I offer cognitive behavioural therapy with a deep understanding of addiction and anxiety. Because I’ve worked in both residential rehab settings and one-to-one environments, I offer tailored, empathetic care. Clients quickly feel safe, respected, and understood.

I am a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) accredited CBT therapist. Since qualifying 18 years ago, I’ve helped individuals facing a wide range of mental health challenges. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or addiction, I guide you toward measurable change.

Paul Regan CBT Therapist Birmingham: Specialising in Addiction and Mental Health

For more than 20 years, I have worked within the 12-step model, including programs like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. This foundation strengthens my approach to behavioural change and relapse prevention. Because of this, I offer both clinical expertise and authentic insight into the recovery journey.

I specialise in treating:

• Alcohol and drug addiction

• Process addictions like gambling and internet use

• Anxiety and stress-related disorders

• Depression, PTSD, OCD, and more

Therapeutic Approach: Safe, Relational, Results-Driven

My strength lies in creating a compassionate, secure space. Clients trust me because I meet them without judgment. Every session is collaborative, goal-oriented, and focused on real outcomes.

Through CBT, I help clients reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. This process leads to greater emotional regulation and confidence. Furthermore, I support clients in building resilience and long-term strategies for mental wellbeing.
