Michele Scarano, BACP

Michele Scarano is a UK-based therapist with seven years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and depression. He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients build coping strategies, improve communication, and regain motivation when life feels overwhelming.

Having lived and worked in eight countries, including Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands and the USA, he brings a multicultural perspective to his practice and values how different cultural experiences shape the way people think and relate. This global background informs his interest in attachment issues, social anxiety and communication problems within relationships.

As a practitioner registered with BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - he aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can share thoughts and feelings. Michele emphasizes practical, collaborative work with each person to set goals and develop skills that suit their life and needs. He encourages those taking the first step toward therapy, acknowledging that beginning this work takes courage and commitment, and he offers steady support throughout the therapeutic process.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

He uses evidence-based, skills-focused work to help people manage stress and anxiety by teaching practical coping strategies and tools that can be applied day to day. This approach emphasizes short-term techniques for regulating emotions, reducing worry and improving daily functioning.

He also focuses on relational and attachment-based work to explore communication patterns, relationship dynamics and how past connections influence current interactions. This type of work helps clients understand recurring relationship issues and develop healthier ways of relating to others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Michele treats it as a collaborative effort. He will work with each client to identify goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, adapting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and additional support can be given through live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care with licensed professionals regardless of location within the therapist's service area.
