About Michelle

Michelle Singh is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. Michelle uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to help people move forward from difficult moments.

Her approach treats the client as the expert in their own life. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and psychodynamic ideas to build understanding and change unhelpful patterns. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on small, usable steps between meetings.

Michelle often helps with grief, trauma and intimacy-related issues, as well as parenting strain and career stress. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, compassion fatigue, sleeping problems and codependency. Adoption and foster care is listed among her additional focus areas for people navigating related challenges.

She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk things through and identify what they want to change. Practical exercises and clearer ways of thinking are introduced when they fit the client's goals. The emphasis is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

To begin, Michelle asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to her schedule. Her working style is warm and collaborative, with attention to each person's priorities and pace.

How Michelle’s approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression and coping with life changes by guiding practical value-led steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It offers clear strategies to reduce unhelpful thinking patterns and improve mood and sleep, which is useful for stress, anxiety and low mood. Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Michelle will collaborate with each person to decide which approach, or combination of approaches, fits their goals and preferences. She adapts techniques to what a person needs rather than sticking to one fixed method. For practicalities, please confirm the current session options before booking. This will ensure you know how sessions are arranged and what best fits your life. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow work around different time zones for international clients. Some people find phone or video easier for a face-to-face feel, while others prefer shorter check-ins when time is tight. Registered or accredited professionals can help tailor timing and pacing so therapy fits around everyday commitments.
