Michelle Taylor

Michelle Taylor offers person-centred counselling that aims to help people feel heard and understood. She sets a calm pace and follows each individual’s lead so sessions move at a speed that feels right. Michelle uses simple, direct conversation to help people talk through their concerns and make practical sense of difficult emotions.

She works with a broad range of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, grief and anger. Michelle also supports people facing trauma and abuse, relationship strain, addiction and challenges around eating and sleeping. Her approach is grounded in empathy and respect, so people can explore painful topics without judgement.

Michelle has 11 years’ experience working with adults from a range of backgrounds. Much of her work has focused on domestic and sexual abuse and on bereavement. That experience informs how she listens and responds to people in crisis or transition.

In sessions she prioritises building trust and helping people understand their patterns and choices. The person she works with remains in control of the pace and direction of therapy. Michelle aims to help people find realistic steps they can use between appointments.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Before booking, clients are invited to discuss what they need so they can choose the best way to begin.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens carefully and reflects what is being said without directing the conversation. This approach can help with issues like anxiety, anger, loss and the effects of trauma by creating space to make sense of feelings.

That same listening-led approach also applies when sessions are offered online. The focus stays on understanding what matters to the client and adapting the pace to suit them. The therapist and client decide together which ways of working help most, and they adjust as the needs or goals change.

Practical benefits of online counselling include being able to fit sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or regular weekly sessions that slot around work or family life. The exact session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. A collaborative conversation at the start helps ensure the chosen format fits the client’s daily routine and goals.
