About Michelle

Michelle McGee is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience in the UK. She works with people who are dealing with stress and anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, grief and loss, and related concerns such as self-esteem and life changes.

Michelle keeps conversations clear and direct. She listens for what matters most and helps people break worries into manageable steps. Sessions focus on practical ways to handle upsetting thoughts, reduce overwhelming feelings, and improve day-to-day functioning.

Her background includes supporting people through trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting pressures and workplace stress. Michelle also offers help for those facing fertility, cancer related worries, caregiving strain and end-of-life matters. She pays attention to attachment and blended family challenges that can shape how people relate to others.

Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions and chooses methods that fit each person’s situation. She aims to build a clear plan with small, achievable goals and regular check-ins so progress can be tracked.

Sessions are conducted in English and Michelle works with a range of concerns including LGBT issues, depression, ADHD and communication or control problems. To start, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the booking process provided.

Approaches and practical online sessions

Michelle works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building coping skills. One common approach helps people identify anxious or negative thought patterns and practise alternative ways of thinking to reduce worry and avoidant behaviour. This can be useful for social anxiety, phobias and general stress.

Another approach concentrates on behavioural experiments and gradual exposure. That involves planning small, manageable steps toward feared situations and reviewing what happened to learn what helped and what did not. This method supports building confidence through repetition and feedback.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Michelle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on progress and practical needs so therapy fits daily life.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals such as Michelle often use these practical benefits to help people keep therapy consistent alongside work, family and other commitments.
