Melanie McGee

Melanie McGee is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and depression. She also works with those facing addictions, grief, eating concerns, bipolar challenges, ADHD and life changes. Melanie sees clients who want help with body image, shame and guilt, obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, phobias and post-traumatic stress.

Melanie believes clients are the experts in their own stories. She emphasises practical steps alongside steady support to help people make small, manageable changes. Sessions focus on building confidence, improving coping skills and finding ways to reduce distress in daily life.

Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and patterns. Melanie aims to rebuild a sense of safety and control after difficult experiences, and to reduce the impact of intrusive thoughts and overwhelming emotions. She works at a pace set by the client and adapts interventions to individual needs.

With six years of professional experience and an NCPS credential, Melanie combines clinical knowledge with a warm, encouraging manner. She frames progress as gradual and collaborative, helping people notice practical shifts over time. The emphasis is on skills that can be used between sessions to support longer term change.

Melanie accepts international clients and offers work in English. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling sessions according to availability.

Evidence-based approaches for online care

Melanie works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people learn new coping skills for anxiety and panic, teaching step-by-step strategies to manage overwhelming thoughts and physical sensations. Another approach targets trauma and post-traumatic stress by helping clients process distressing memories safely while strengthening daily routines and self-soothing skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Melanie will discuss options based on your goals, symptoms and preferences, and together you will decide which methods to try first. She adapts the work as progress is made and as needs change.

If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats available before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy routine, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue therapy across locations, which can help maintain progress during life transitions. Registered or accredited professionals can guide the practical setup and help adjust the pace and tasks so sessions suit everyday life.
