About Michelle
Michelle Taylor is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to support people through difficult times. She emphasises a calm, patient pace and puts the client in control of how therapy moves forward. Michelle aims to make first steps easier by answering questions and helping people feel comfortable before therapy begins.
Her practice covers a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety and depression, along with relationship and intimacy-related issues.
Background and approach
She has particular experience supporting people affected by domestic or sexual abuse and those coping with bereavement. Other focus areas include addictions, eating and sleeping problems, self-esteem and major life changes. Michelle has 11 years of experience working with adults from varied backgrounds across the United Kingdom.
She holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP in her credentials. Sessions are available in English and international clients may be supported. Therapy is offered at a pace that suits each person, with options for short-term or longer-term work.
In sessions she listens without judgement and helps people explore their thoughts and feelings. The goal is to build understanding, find practical ways to manage symptoms and make steady progress toward clearer choices. Before starting, she will talk through options and any questions someone has about how therapy will work.
That conversation helps shape the plan and ensures the person feels involved in decisions about their care.

Approaches Michelle 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
Michelle’s way of working starts with a conversation about what the individual needs and hopes to achieve. Finding the right approach is collaborative - she will discuss options, adapt the pace and check in regularly to make sure the work still fits the person’s goals. Together they will choose how to proceed based on needs and preferences.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face contact when helpful, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to attend sessions from different places and at varied times, helping therapy fit around work and family commitments.
