About Michelle
Michelle Corrigan is a warm, person-centred counsellor who helps people untangle what’s on their mind and find ways forward. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, addiction and depression. Sessions invite honest conversation about what is happening now and how it affects feelings and behaviour.
Her style is interactive and individualised. She listens for what is blocking growth and helps people identify practical steps they can try between sessions.
Background and approach
Dialogue is usually verbal, and sometimes involves physical or energetic work when appropriate to the person’s needs. Michelle draws on person-centred and humanistic roots and uses an integrative approach. She brings ideas from attachment-based therapy and cognitive behavioural methods to help people understand patterns and test new ways of coping.
She also uses emotionally-focused perspectives to look at how relationships shape feelings. Clients can expect a mix of reflective conversation and down-to-earth tools. Michelle pays attention to how stress shows up in the body as well as the mind.
She aims to help people feel more able to manage day-to-day pressures and make clearer choices. Michelle has six years' experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with people across a range of concerns and supports them to set achievable goals and try small changes that add up over time.

Online support
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the session. The therapist listens without judgement and supports people to find their own answers, which can suit those who need time to make sense of change or loss.
Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thinking and behaviour patterns and test small changes. These practical tools can be taught and practised during video or phone sessions and then applied between meetings for immediate benefit.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the focus as needs shift so the process stays relevant and doable.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
