About Michelle

Michelle Singh is a counsellor with five years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She uses familiar therapeutic approaches to help people who are anxious, stressed, depressed or struggling with relationship and family concerns. Michelle highlights listening and a collaborative pace so people can feel heard when they first reach out.

Her work focuses on practical, everyday steps rather than jargon. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to look at patterns of thinking and behaviour. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice difficult feelings and choose actions that matter to them.

Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs and strengths. Michelle believes people know their own story and aims to help them build on what already works. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, sleep problems and burnout-related issues such as compassion fatigue.

Michelle has experience supporting people with parenting concerns, adoption and foster care topics, attachment questions, and complex areas like dissociation or ADHD-related challenges. She is comfortable talking about intimacy, kink and non-traditional relationship issues when those come up.

Therapy is offered through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Michelle works with international clients and runs sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them.

How Michelle blends approaches for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it can be useful for sleep problems and anxiety. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and the therapeutic relationship so people feel understood and can explore what matters to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michelle will discuss these methods with each person and decide collaboratively which ideas to try first. That conversation will take into account the person’s goals, what has helped before, and how they prefer to work in sessions.

The biography lists live instant messaging, video and telephone calls as session options, so please confirm current formats when you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and options where being on camera is not required. Registered or accredited professionals often use these formats to help people access regular support without reshaping their whole day.
