Psychological Counselling with Michelle

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, reflective and person centred. I acknowledge that our unique human experiences bring a range of difficulties, strengths, and needs. I believe that a strong and genuine therapeutic connection is fundamental when working with people to achieve their therapeutic goals and needs. Therefore, I aim to create a space that fosters connection and validation.

In my practice, I utilise evidence-based treatment modalities such as;

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT),
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
Enhanced Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT-E).

I have a special interest in working with people experiencing body images concerns, eating disorders, anxiety, and depression. I also provide pre-cosmetic surgery psychological assessments. I work predominantly with adolescents (16+) and adults.
