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.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
