More about Michaela

Hi there!

I am Michaela, a Counsellor based in London, UK.

My training includes a Degree in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in Hypnotherapy and a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychotherapy and Counselling.

Being a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCS) means that as well as abiding to their code of ethics, I have a high level of training and supervised experience.

My approach is collaborative, respectful and non-judgemental. As a Pluralistic Counsellor, I tailor my theoretical approach to your individual needs, meaning that I work using my intake of different approaches and techniques (Person-centred, Psychoanalytic, Humanistic, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy etc.)

If you are looking for friendly and professional support to go through a difficult time in your life I can help you overcome your problems and achieve your goals using a range of psychotherapy approaches.

Together we can work through whatever issues you bring, so that you can live up to your full potential, feel fulfilled and make more satisfying life choices.

Learning more about your thoughts, behaviours and feelings, will help you in your relationships, work life and home life. Through counselling you may find new perspectives, feel more resilient and be better equipped to deal with all of life's challenges.

The key to a successful outcome is to build up the therapeutic relationship together. Our sessions can be short or long term, at a pace that you feel comfortable with.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
