About Michelle

Michelle Corrigan welcomes people who are struggling with sleep, stress or the strain of daily life. She works from a warm, person-centred place and focuses on what is happening in the here and now. Michelle aims to help people notice what is blocking them and find practical ways to move forward.

Her approach uses open dialogue and sometimes non-verbal, energetic ways of working. Sessions look at what is happening externally that causes distress and what is happening inside the body and mind. That includes how emotions show up physically and how they affect sleep and rest.

Michelle describes her work as interactive and creative. She draws on person-centred and humanistic ideas and uses tools from attachment-based and cognitive approaches as needed. This means the counsellor follows the person, listens closely, and helps people try new ways of thinking and acting.

She is an Integrative Counsellor who also brings experience from Gestalt practice, yoga, and shamanic-inspired methods. Michelle is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, which is recorded as BACP.

People can expect to explore practical steps and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns. Michelle aims to hold space, support people through difficult feelings, and help them build more restful routines and responses.

If someone is ready to start making changes, Michelle invites them to take the next step and begin the process together.

How Michelle’s approaches translate to online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and emotional responses. Online sessions can help people spot repeated relationship patterns and practise new ways of connecting and regulating strong feelings.

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and the person’s own wisdom. In this way of working the counsellor offers a non-judgemental space to talk through worries, restlessness or sleep problems and to find what feels most helpful for each person.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and daily realities, then suggest a mix of methods that suit those needs. This choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm how sessions are delivered before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy around work, caregiving or rest schedules, makes it easier to keep regular appointments, and allows short check-ins when needed. Choose an option that fits your routine and the kind of support you want.
