I’m currently having a very wonderful experience with Michael, who is an exceptional listener and creates a warm, easy-going atmosphere. His empathy and professionalism make every session feel safe and supportive, even when I’m navigating difficult topics. I particularly appreciate our discussions on parallelisms, as they help me understand myself better. Michael is instrumental in my ongoing journey of self-discovery.

I am a Person-Centred (humanistic) Counsellor, and registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and means I work within their ethical framework and practice guidelines.
I am a kind, compassionate and easy going person. I have lived a very varied life over two continents where my working careers in advertising, media, publishing and photography have brought me into contact with people from all walks of life.
Thank you for taking that first step in finding me here. We all face times in our lives’ when we just need some space to be still and reflect, a space where we feel accepted, understood, and supported in gaining a deeper awareness into why we feel the way we do and how we can develop a greater understanding of self and how to move forward in a more positive way. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety depression, low self-esteem and family issues.
I look forward to offering you a safe, comfortable, non-judgemental and warm place in which to reflect on any challenging life situations that you may be facing right now.
It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change, I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
