About Michelle

Michelle Singh is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship worries. Michelle also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, sleep problems, parenting strains and career-related stress.

She uses a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), psychodynamic work and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). Sessions aim to help people notice patterns, try different ways of responding, and build on what already works in daily life. Michelle writes that clients are the experts on their own stories and draws on that perspective in sessions.

Her style is conversational and practical. She offers a chance to talk through immediate problems and to reflect on longer-standing themes that keep recurring. Therapy can include looking at thoughts and behaviours, exploring past experiences that shape present choices, and clarifying personal values to guide decisions.

Michelle accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. She offers video, telephone and live instant messaging as ways to meet, and uses a subscription model for payment that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

Clients who finish work with Michelle are invited to leave a review. That feedback helps others understand what to expect and supports the decision to try therapy.

How her approaches work for online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and stay focused on what matters to them. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to reduce symptoms and change patterns. Psychodynamic therapy explores how past experiences shape current relationships and choices, which can help with repeated relationship or self-esteem problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That may mean starting with practical CBT techniques, then shifting to ACT or psychodynamic reflections as needs change.

She runs sessions remotely and offers video, telephone and live instant messaging as ways to meet. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into study, work or travel schedules, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can use online sessions to support steady progress while working around everyday commitments.
