Paula Polhill - Psychologist, Marriage Counsellor and ACT Therapist in Gladesville / Compass Psychology Services reviews
14We went to Paula for pre-marriage counselling, having had some concerns about our relationship before the big day. As soon as we walked into her office, she made us feel so comfortable and normalised our issues within minutes. We walked out with concrete tools and understood each other so much more and knew what to do differently moving forward. The best investment we ever made!
Paula has an amazing gift of intuiting information. Unbelievable! She got me straight away without me having to to tell my whole story for 20th time (been to many psychologists over the past 30 years, lol). Would not hesitate to recommend Paula. She is so talented and has changed me life! Forever
I was forced to go to see Paula by my better-half and was absolutely dreading it. I couldn’t believe how much more better and positive I felt after our first appointment. Paula was brilliant. She didn’t judge me. Make me feel not alone and she explained things really simply which made me so much more confident and it all made so much sense. My fault we didn’t go sooner. Thankyou Paula
I was very anxious at first as she’s a straight shooter. She never scapegoated either of us. Just helped us understand how we were both contributing to the the toxic dynamic we got ourselves stuck in. She highlighted how we were BOTH contributing to the negative outcomes we were enduring.
Thank you Paula! I had such a positive experience from your workshop. I walked away feeling empowered with tools, that I thought were very realistic, as well as being very achievable. I felt like I actually learnt new things! I left feeling good knowing that I had such a positive experience at the workshop & I had this new information & power to use in my day to day life. What you had to say, really struck a chord with me. I have been to 3 different psychologists in the last 10 years & have left all 3 of those sessions feeling unfulfilled, highly distressed & feeling like, to be honest, it was a waste of my time. Which is exactly the opposite of how I felt after your workshop. So, thank you! I thought you were very honest & very real & created a warm environment for the discussion. I would highly recommend you & wouldn't hesitate on returning for myself or a family member in the future. Thank you kindly. SP.
I recently attended one of Paula's workshops and found it incredibly helpful and motivating to make some positive changes in my life. She speaks from the heart, delivers her knowledge in an engaging and practical manner and armed the participants with many useful tools to take away with them. She is passionate about what she does and is both personable and realistic, which was refreshing and comforting.
During the session, there were tears, laughter and so many 'ah ha' moments. Paula really helped me to put some of my feelings and thoughts into perspective and I am utilising some of the tools she shared with the group already which are making positive impacts to my life.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and I hope to learn more from you in the not too distant future. Kind regards, Renee
I attended Paula's self development workshop and was amazed at what we covered in a few short hours. Her knowledge, generosity and ability to simplify psychological tools and therapies were invaluable. I look forward to working with Paula in the future to be the best version of myself that I can be!
Thanks again Paula for an informative and worthwhile 3.5 hours. For me - the key takeaway is Mindfulness. If we are aware of our present we can determine which life sessions of the past, and our future aspirations and fears, we want to hold on too.
From Mindfulness comes Acceptance and the quote sums it up "The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain".
A Value driven life is not one without challenges, but it is one that we can achieve and thrive.
Paula's versatile approach has given me the exact tools and insight I personally needed. I highly recommend Paula
Paula is great and very real - easy to relate to as she is not just someone who has studied psychology but has lived it and experienced it. She speaks from a place of knowledge and true understanding.
Paula has an excellent insight into the functions of the mind, and provided me a great stepping stone to understanding myself more wholly.
Paula has been great. She has helped me identify and understand my issues in a caring non-judgmental manner. I was seeing another therapist who was way off track. Paula provides practical advice which has really helped.
I cannot recommend Paula and her services enough. Over a number of years she has been a huge support to me and my family in so many ways. Absolutely the best experience.
Undertook a workshop with Paula. Felt very comfortable and no nonsense workshop. After years of "counselling" finally heard something that made sense and helps in everyday life. Would recommend Paula wholeheartedly
