About Michelle

Michelle McGee works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, and other life changes. She uses conversation and practical strategies to help people manage emotions and rebuild routines. Michelle is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years' experience.

Michelle meets people who are dealing with low mood, worry, parenting pressures and questions about intimacy. She also supports people facing career changes, fertility or cancer-related stress, and those coping with bereavement. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on simple steps that can make day-to-day life more manageable.

Her approach is person-centred and practical. Conversations look at patterns in relationships and behaviour, communication problems, and attachment issues that affect how people relate to others. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, abuse and ADHD-related challenges when these come up.

Michelle works with matters such as blended family tensions, divorce and separation, caregiver strain, body image, guilt and shame, and end-of-life concerns. She explains options clearly and helps people choose small, achievable changes to try between sessions.

Sessions are conducted in English. Michelle draws on five years' experience in the UK counselling field and the guidance of BACP practice standards when planning sessions. To start, she asks new clients about their main concerns and what they hope to change so the first meeting can be focused and useful.

Therapeutic approaches and online counselling

Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to support change. One common strand focuses on exploring relationship patterns and attachment issues to help with communication problems and recurrent conflict. This looks at how past and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour and practical ways to change how people relate to others.

Another strand addresses stress, anxiety and grief through short-term practical strategies. These techniques aim to reduce overwhelming feelings, build routine, and create small actions people can practise between sessions to feel steadier day to day.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different ways of working and decide together what fits the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as understanding grows.

Please confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people choose arrangements that suit their schedule and needs without committing to travel.
