About Michele
Michele Attias is a BACP counsellor who helps people work through depression, stress and anxiety in English and Spanish. She aims to make each session straightforward and supportive, with short- or long-term options depending on what the person needs. Michele writes and coaches as well as counselling, so she brings practical tools alongside reflective conversation.
She uses an integrative, client-centred way of working that looks at the whole person - mental, emotional, social and spiritual needs.
Background and approach
That usually means combining techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches, emotionally-focused methods and acceptance-based work to match what a person wants to achieve. Sessions focus on plain talk, clear goals and small, manageable steps. Michele has around 20 years of experience and says she listens with care and energy.
She supports people who are overthinking, exhausted, or finding it hard to cope after life changes. The work often includes building decision-making skills, reducing overwhelm and improving concentration and time management. People come for many concerns including grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, eating or sleeping problems, parenting stress, career worries and compassion fatigue.
Additional focus areas named include attachment concerns, adoption and foster care, neurodiversity and certain sexual cultures and behaviours. Michele also lists work with bipolar and ADHD related difficulties. Sessions are conducted remotely by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
International clients may be supported and the counsellor accepts clients who speak English or Spanish. To begin, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions after that.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, so the process stays collaborative and adaptable.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging, offering flexibility for different routines. Video sessions are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat or messaging can suit ongoing coaching-style support and brief check-ins between longer sessions. Registered or accredited professionals use these options to make therapy more accessible for people in different locations and time zones.
