About Michael
Counsellor and member of the BACP with seven years' experience, Michael Green helps people in the United Kingdom with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger and self-esteem. He works with adults and with couples. He offers straightforward talking therapy aimed at practical change rather than jargon.
Michael keeps sessions direct and focused on what a person wants to achieve. He listens for patterns that cause repeated problems, such as attachment or abandonment issues, control and communication difficulties, and feelings of guilt or shame. He will also address related matters like chronic pain, illness, money worries and isolation when they affect emotional wellbeing.
Sessions look at everyday coping and small changes that make a difference. He helps people understand how past experiences might shape current reactions. He also works on what to do differently in relationships, including separation and divorce issues where relevant.
His approach is evidence-based and practical. That includes tools for mood problems, impulsivity, and anger management, plus support with life purpose and body image concerns. The aim is to build clearer thinking and better choices rather than quick fixes.
Michael asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not currently accepted.
How evidence-based approaches are used in online counselling
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on clear methods that help people change unhelpful patterns. One common approach looks at thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety and mood problems. It helps with day-to-day coping and impulsivity by giving simple strategies to try between sessions.Another approach examines past relationships and attachment patterns to understand present reactions. This can be useful for relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns and problems with trust or communication. It involves talking through past experiences and testing new ways of relating in current life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and choose methods together based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as the work progresses.
Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions around work and family routines, and avoiding travel time. Online sessions can also make it easier to maintain continuity of contact when life is busy.
