About Michael
Michael has helped people manage stress, anxiety and depression while supporting the rebuilding of confidence and self-esteem when clients feel low or uncertain. He recognises how early life experiences can shape present-day relationships and self-perception, and he uses the counselling relationship as a space to explore those patterns and encourage meaningful change. In the early stages of work he focuses on practical ways to ease symptoms such as overthinking and overwhelming anxiety, then gradually moves into deeper exploration of emotions, thoughts and relational dynamics.
He also brings experience in supporting recovery from addiction and in helping clients pursue more productive, sober lives. Michael emphasises personal responsibility and self-determination, helping people identify and strengthen their existing resources so they can manage current challenges and move toward a more purposeful life. He welcomes people who have taken the first step in reaching out and is ready to work collaboratively toward their goals.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Michael draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered therapy, with mindfulness practices woven into his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people make space for difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action - an approach often useful for anxiety, avoidance and life transitions. Client-Centered therapy prioritises empathic listening and a non-directive stance so that clients can explore their own experiences and rebuild self-esteem in a supportive environment. Mindfulness techniques teach present-moment awareness and can reduce rumination, helping people manage stress and emotional reactivity.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Michael works collaboratively to find what fits best for each person. He will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs together with the client, adjusting methods over time to match progress and changing priorities.
Online therapy with Michael is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home or other convenient places and to integrate therapeutic work into everyday life while maintaining continuity of care with licensed professionals and therapists.
