About Michaelagh
Dr. Michaelagh Walker is a counsellor who draws on person-centred and cognitive approaches to help people facing depression and major life changes. She practises in the United Kingdom and brings six years of practice in one-to-one work.
Her style is warm and interactive and she aims to make sessions feel respectful and straightforward. She often works with people experiencing relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, and coping with life transitions. She also supports those dealing with mood disorders, loneliness, guilt, and questions about life purpose.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what each person needs in the moment rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. In session she uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a listening space where the person's own goals lead the work. She combines this with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques to spot thinking patterns and try practical steps that can change how someone feels day to day.
These methods are mixed flexibly to suit individual concerns. Her background includes training in the UK and work across independent practice settings. She holds BACP as a listed credential and has six years of clinical experience.
She offers appointments via video, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different needs. Starting is simple: follow the site's Start Therapy process, complete a short questionnaire, and schedule sessions as offered. She aims to work collaboratively so people feel heard and begin to make manageable changes.

Approaches Michaelagh lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. Online CBT often includes identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small practical experiments to shift mood and behaviour. This approach can help with depression, low self-esteem and everyday coping skills.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, try out techniques, and adjust the balance of listening and practical tools as needed. The plan can change as progress is made and new priorities arise.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit around busy days and use less bandwidth, live chat can be used for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule work around life and to try different formats to see what helps most.
