Michele is a gem. Great listener, clear communication. Knows what I’m thinking and can truly offer great advice (if wanted) OR just be a sounded board to say “ I hear you and I care”
More about Michele
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
As a neurodivergent-affirming and licensed therapist in the UK with seven years of dedicated experience, I offer compassionate and respectful support to help you navigate life's challenges. I specialise in working with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues, as well as guiding you through significant life transitions.
I am also an EMDR therapist, providing effective treatment for PTSD, complex trauma, and abuse. Additionally, EMDR can be a powerful tool in addressing phobias, social anxiety, panic disorder, and more.
My approach is rooted in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and genuine compassion. I understand that each individual's journey is unique, and I will tailor our conversations and treatment plan to align with your specific needs and goals.
Taking that initial step towards a more fulfilling and happier life requires courage, and I commend you for considering it. I have extensive experience supporting clients who have faced a wide range of difficulties, including worry, anxiety, grief, feeling lost, sadness, depression, low self-worth, intrusive thoughts, addiction, relationship challenges, anger management, and PTSD. I also work with individuals managing long-term conditions and unexplained illnesses.
I am here to offer a safe and supportive space for you to explore your experiences and embark on your path toward healing and growth.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Michele is a gem. Great listener, clear communication. Knows what I’m thinking and can truly offer great advice (if wanted) OR just be a sounded board to say “ I hear you and I care”
Michele offers a kind and understanding support while honestly sharing her point of view. She adapts to my needs and wouldn't force anything upon me that I don't feel comfortable with. Her goal is to find the best way to support me and for that she offers a variety of approaches that come along with a lot of experience.
Michelle was able to create safe space and build trust from the start despite my initial doubts and high standards. She's very responsive, easy to talk to and I feel her empathy in every session
Michelle has been a wonderful therapist over the past few months, and is actually the first therapist i've ever stuck with in my whole life! She is casual but professional, and i'd highly recommend her.
Been very helpful so far
Michelle has opened up views again on my life. Helped me remember that inner child is always in need of support and love. Michelle has also helped me realise where my life events have impacted my adult life. And how to address them with a clearer mindset. I will be forever grateful, I believe we should all speak to someone like Michelle, as its the little things we forget as we get older that really help make a better life for ourselves. And those around us. Thankyou. You are an angel
Shelly is an amazing therapist. I've been working with her for about three months now and it's been a great experience. We've done a lot of EMDR and other sessions we just talk about things. She's very insightful and helpful and often guides me towards new ways of looking at something. Also the EMDR work is just amazing and solves up so much inner turmoil. So I can gladly recommend Shelly. She's also quick to respond to my messages and always makes sure that I have a slot that works for the both of us.
So far so good, definitely helped me understand my situation due to my past truama and explains everything well
