 Both Paula and Barrie have 25+ years experience in counselling with psychotherapy, language patterns and communication skills. This includes working with clients one to one, teaching seminars and workshops, facilitating groups and writing relevant corresponding documents. Paula is a published author and has over 15 years experience in writing and publishing. She is also trained in spiritual accompaniment.

Following a life-changing accident in 2023, Paula has turned her attention to writing and helping others both personally and professionally through the written word and creative workshops. Paula is currently studying at university for her Master of Arts. Barrie has taught throughout the UK and South Africa.

Writing Well was founded and developed by Paula Thwaite in May 2024 following her addressing the importance and value of personal/professional acknowledgment through sharing the written word and giving/receiving of constructive feedback from both a one-to-one or group connection.

"I have watched people's eyes light up, their breathing calm, the tone of their skin change and their whole posture alter at being acknowledged and given space to be themselves. This is so simple, yet so valuable." Paula Thwaite
