Paula Taylor completed a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in Psychology and Sociology from Rhodes University and then completed her masters degree in Humanistic Psychotherapy from La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia. Paula worked in family service organisations Melbourne after graduating which inspired the development of her own emotional regulation approach she called ‘Tackle the Feelings Before the Behaviour” or “TFBB”. This expanded into a practice in South Africa where Paula helps individuals and familys through counselling, family/parenting support and other therapeutic groups and services. TFBB ains to ‘bring emotions back’

Testimonials

I took my special needs son to see Paula to work through a few issues he was having. Paula took him in and worked with him on his level, building up trust along the way. She had to think out of the box at times and even took him on nature walks to help him open up – I don’t know of another psycologist who would do that. It was obvious that she genuinely cared and nothing was too much effort. My son still asks about her and Paula still sends him virtual hugs. Its refreshing to see how real Paula is with her patients. I’d happily recommend her.
From a mom of two gorgeous boys

My son was struggling with emotional regulation both in the home and especially in the school environment and that is where I found Paula. She not only helped my son but helped me as a mother to deal with his emotions and set in good routines and structures and tools to help him with his difficulties. It has now been over five years that we have been using Paula and she is always available and there with good advice to help us through the difficult times. Paula has even helped me as a mum to understand my fears and frustrations and concerns with dealing with a child that struggles emotionally and lacks confidence. Parenting is not easy and knowing that you have someone to support not only your child but your family through a difficult journey is an added bonus.
