ABOUT PAUL GIBSON
For more than 15 years, I have worked with people who felt stuck, defeated or disconnected from themselves. Many had already tried medication, therapy or both, yet still felt that nobody had fully understood what was keeping them trapped.
My role is not simply to guide you through a ketamine session. It is to understand the person arriving for treatment, help you feel safe enough to be honest, and stay alongside you as what emerges begins to make sense.
MY MISSION
Ketamine can change someone’s state of mind, but the medicine cannot understand their history, recognise what is emerging or help them decide what to do with it.
My role is to provide continuity throughout the programme — preparing carefully, remaining present during each ketamine session, and helping you explore and integrate what follows.
MY STORY
My own journey through life hasn’t always been easy. I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, to carry pain you can’t quite explain, and to wonder if things will ever get better.
Therapy changed my life. It gave me the understanding, tools and support I needed to heal — and it showed me this is the work I was meant to do.
Today, I get to walk alongside people as they find their way back to themselves and create lives that feel real and fulfilling.
MY APPROACH
I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches including IFS, attachment theory, developmental work and hypnotherapy.
In our work together, I’ll help you understand what’s been keeping you stuck, process what needs to be healed, and build the internal resources you need for lasting change.
It’s not about quick fixes. It’s about real, meaningful transformation.
MY EXPERIENCE
I’ve been working as a psychotherapist and hypnotherapist for over 15 years, helping people with depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationship issues and more.
I’m the Director of Psychotherapy at The Emerge Clinic, where I lead the therapeutic side of our ketamine-assisted psychotherapy programme.

AREAS I SPECIALISE IN
A PERSONAL NOTE
People often contact me knowing only that something is not working and that they cannot keep carrying it in the same way. That is enough to begin.
My role is to listen carefully, understand what has brought you here and help you decide what the next step should be. You will not be expected to explain everything perfectly or make any decision before you are ready.
“
You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. You just need to take the first step. I’ll walk with you from there.

WE WORK TOGETHER
The Emerge Clinic was built in partnership with Dr Adam Devany, a consultant trauma surgeon. Adam brings medical assessment, prescribing and clinical oversight; I lead the psychological preparation, therapeutic support and integration. Together, we provide a carefully coordinated approach to ketamine-assisted psychotherapy.
