About Michelle

Counsellor Michelle Singh is a BACP member with five years of clinical work in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns, and also helps with issues such as parenting, grief, self-esteem and trauma and abuse.

Michelle uses a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. She aims to work in a way that recognises each person's existing strengths and practical needs. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients as noted in her profile.

In the room she focuses on clear, simple steps as well as talking through deeper patterns. That might mean trying out short, practical techniques to reduce anxiety, alongside exploring how past experiences affect current feelings and relationships. Michelle frames this as collaborative work rather than fixed rules.

She also supports people dealing with intimacy-related issues, ADHD-related concerns, compassion fatigue and career stress. Other areas listed include attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care matters, chronic illness and pain, codependency and communication problems.

Michelle offers sessions that can fit around everyday life. The listing mentions live instant messaging, video and telephone calls as options. Before booking it is sensible to confirm which session formats are currently available and how the subscription payment works.

How Michelle uses online counselling methods

Michelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on practical steps and changes in thinking or behaviour to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. ACT works on identifying values and building small actions that matter, which can help with motivation and coping.

She also draws on client-centred and psychodynamic ideas to explore how past experiences shape current feelings. That side of the work can help when patterns in relationships or long-standing emotional responses are a concern. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative part of the first sessions and ongoing work. The counsellor will discuss goals, try techniques and adjust the approach based on what helps most.

The profile lists live instant messaging, video and telephone calls as session options. Confirm which of these formats Michelle currently offers before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, travel or family life. Telephone calls allow a check-in without video, video lets you see facial expression and messaging can suit shorter or more frequent contact. Registered or accredited professionals often use these options to help sessions fit into everyday life.
