About Michelle
Michelle Corrigan is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, career concerns and other common pressures of early adulthood. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what led to these difficulties.
Michelle uses a person-centred approach as her foundation. Conversations are mainly verbal and may include creative or energetic elements when helpful. She pays attention to both external problems and how those problems affect thoughts, feelings and the body.
Her background is integrative, drawing on person-centred and humanistic ideas. She also draws on Gestalt practice and elements from other movement and mind–body traditions she has explored. This mix informs flexible ways of working rather than a single technique.
In sessions, the focus is practical: talk through what is on your mind, notice patterns that block change, and try small steps to do things differently. The work aims to help people clarify choices and build more manageable ways to cope with stress or life transitions.
Michelle treats each person as an individual and adapts the pace to how someone prefers to work. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, listed as BACP, and works with adults seeking support for the issues listed above.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Michelle draws on person-centred work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to guide online sessions. Person-centred practice focuses on listening closely and following what matters most to the person. It helps when someone feels stuck, lost or unsure about choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical steps to try new ways of responding to stress or anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, worries and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted as the sessions progress.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts at work or travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and for people who prefer not to use video. Registered or accredited professionals will explain the practical arrangements when you schedule the first session.
