About Michelle

Michelle King is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with eight years' experience. She meets people who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stuck and offers one-to-one counselling to help them find clearer footing. Michelle is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.

Many people come because of stress, anxiety or grief. Others seek help after trauma or when life changes feel hard to manage. She also supports those navigating ADHD-related challenges and issues linked to fertility, attachment and identity. Michelle aims to listen without judgement and to make space for what matters most to each person.

Her way of working is person-centred, which means the sessions follow the client's priorities. Sessions may include talking, practical strategies and creative exercises when these feel helpful. She will also gently look at how past experiences might still affect present choices and relationships.

Michelle offers short or longer-term counselling depending on what each situation needs. She also supervises other practitioners as part of her professional practice. Her credential is BACP, which denotes membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

If you are unsure whether counselling is right, Michelle encourages a first step of a short assessment to see what would suit you. To begin you complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How therapeutic methods translate to online care

Michelle uses person-centred counselling as the core of her work, which focuses on listening, empathy and following the client's lead to address what matters most. This approach helps with anxiety, grief and life changes by creating space to talk through feelings and make sense of options.

She also integrates creative techniques alongside talking and practical strategy work. Creative methods might involve simple activities to uncover feelings, explore responses and try different ways of coping when words alone do not feel enough.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Michelle will collaborate with each person to decide what feels most useful, adjusting methods over time to match goals and preferences rather than imposing a single model.

Practical benefits of remote therapy can include fitting sessions around work, childcare or appointments and reducing travel time. Because the original profile does not list specific session formats, please confirm current session options before booking. The focus will be on making therapy fit day-to-day life in a way that supports steady progress.
