About Michelle

Michelle Singh is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression, and supports people facing relationship and family difficulties including blended family issues.

She uses a small set of psychological approaches to help people manage problems. Michelle draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice patterns, try different responses and focus on workable next steps. She frames clients as the expert in their own lives and builds on existing strengths.

Sessions are conversational and practical. Michelle talks through current problems, explores how past experiences affect present reactions, and suggests exercises or experiments to try between meetings. The tone is straightforward and task-focused rather than academic.

She also offers coaching-style support for career or life-change decisions and addresses issues such as sleep, intimacy-related concerns, grief and ADHD-related challenges. Other areas listed include abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency and communication problems.

Michelle accepts clients from outside the UK. Before booking, people should confirm the session formats currently offered. To begin, clients follow the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

Therapeutic approaches and online working

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to small steps that align with what matters. It can help with anxiety, avoidance and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers practical techniques and short experiments to reduce unhelpful patterns such as worry, sleep disruption or low mood.

Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape current reactions and relationships. This can be useful for understanding attachment issues, abandonment concerns and repeated relationship patterns.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that fit the issue, and adjust plans if something does not feel helpful. Clients and the counsellor decide together which methods to use over time.

The original biography lists live instant messaging, video and telephone calls as formats, so confirm which of these are currently offered before booking. Online sessions make it easier to fit meetings into busy days, allow quieter or shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to continue regular contact and to try practical exercises between sessions.
