About Michelle
Michelle Caleb is a person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation and brings six years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression and issues linked to addiction. Michelle uses a warm, accepting style to help clients feel heard and understood before working on practical next steps.
She focuses on concerns such as relationship struggles, self-esteem, family tensions, trauma and abuse, grief and intimacy-related problems. Michelle also supports people dealing with eating concerns, career transitions, ADHD and LGBT issues.
Background and approach
Her work often touches on attachment, abandonment and communication difficulties as well as long-term patterns like codependency or avoidant behaviour. Sessions follow a person-centred approach, so conversations are shaped by what matters most to the client in that moment. Michelle listens without judgement and helps people notice their own strengths and choices.
She pairs this with mindfulness techniques to ease overwhelming feelings and solution-focused ideas to set achievable goals. Michelle adapts how she works to suit each person. Some appointments are reflective and paced slowly.
Others focus on quick, practical steps to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. She aims to create a respectful, dependable therapeutic space where people can begin to make changes at their own speed. People can book video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging sessions.
Michelle uses an online subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and she guides newcomers through a short matching questionnaire to start the process.

How Michelle's approaches work online
Michelle uses a person-centred (client-centred) approach that places the client's concerns and choices at the heart of sessions. This means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people connect with their own strengths and values to guide change.She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help with overwhelming emotions. Mindfulness work here focuses on simple grounding and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment coping. Solution-focused methods are used to set clear, short-term goals and identify small steps that can make daily life easier.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Michelle works collaboratively to find what fits each person's needs and preferences, and she adjusts methods as progress is made. Clients and the therapist decide together whether to emphasise reflection, coping skills or practical problem-solving.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for short check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible timing across their day. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel while keeping the focus on achievable steps and emotional relief.
