About Michelle
Michelle Caleb is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship difficulties, and she also supports concerns such as self-esteem, grief and identity matters including LGBT issues.
Michelle uses a person-centred approach that places the client's experience at the centre of sessions. She focuses on listening without judgement and helping people notice their own strengths and resources. Sessions follow what the person brings that day, so the emphasis can shift as concerns change.
She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people manage strong emotions and to develop steadier attention in difficult moments. Solution-focused ideas appear when a practical, step-based plan is helpful for tackling immediate problems or achieving specific goals.
Michelle has worked with a wide range of life situations, including family tensions, work and career stress, eating and body-image concerns, neurodiversity issues such as autism, and longer-term effects of trauma and abuse. She describes a practice that pays attention to what each person needs in the moment and helps them try different ways of coping.
People who choose to book are asked to use the site process to match and schedule an initial appointment. Sessions are conversational and paced by the client, with practical strategies offered when relevant.
How Michelle uses person-centred, mindfulness and solution-focused work online
Michelle describes her core approaches plainly. Person-centred counselling means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and follows the client’s priorities in each session. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to make sense of feelings.Mindfulness therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and steady strong emotions. This can be useful for stress, anxiety or situations that feel overwhelming in the moment. Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, actionable steps and on what a client wants to change first; it is practical and goal oriented when concrete progress is needed.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Michelle will discuss options and agree a direction based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. That decision is made together and can shift as progress is made.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins where helpful. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to make therapy fit everyday life.
