About Michelle

Michelle Singh is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years of clinical experience and works with people who are facing stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, anger and issues around self-esteem and intimacy.

Michelle uses a mix of talking therapies to suit each person. She believes the client is the expert in their own life and draws on peoples existing strengths when they want change. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients from the United Kingdom.

Her day-to-day approach combines practical techniques and reflective work. Cognitive behavioural methods can help with day-to-day thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on values and small steps people can take toward what matters to them.

Michelle also uses client-centred listening to make space for what matters most to the person in the room. Psychodynamic ideas are used when helpful to look at patterns that repeat over time. She aims for sessions that are straightforward and grounded in real life.

Clients can expect a calm, direct style that balances problem-solving with understanding. The booking process begins online and follows a short questionnaire and scheduling step. Michelle encourages people to recognise the courage it takes to begin and to take that first step.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Michelle uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and managing day-to-day symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small committed actions, helping people carry on with what matters even when feelings are painful. Client-Centred Therapy puts the persons experience at the centre; sessions involve careful listening and reflecting back to help someone make sense of their life.

Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences and what feels most useful in early sessions. This is an ongoing conversation and can change as therapy progresses.

The original biography indicates Michelle offers live instant messaging, video and telephone calls, so please confirm which options are currently available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, avoid travel time and suit quieter or lower-bandwidth situations. Registered or accredited professionals can guide practical choices so therapy fits daily routines without promising a specific outcome.
