About Michelle

Michelle Taylor offers a calm, person-centred approach to counselling. She listens first and follows each person’s pace. Sessions are tailored to what the client brings, whether that is a short-term need or a longer process of change.

She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression and grief. Trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, addictions and eating or sleeping difficulties are also areas she addresses. Michelle draws on 11 years of experience to guide conversations and practical steps forward.

Background and approach

Michelle uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on understanding each person’s perspective. The aim is to build trust and a non-judgemental space so people can make sense of their feelings. This approach keeps the client in control of their progress while the counsellor reflects and supports.

She has particular experience supporting people affected by domestic and sexual abuse, and those facing bereavement and end-of-life concerns. Other focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, panic and self-harm, and problems linked to substance use and relapse. Sessions can help with everyday struggles like parenting stress, workplace pressure, low self-esteem and navigating life changes.

Michelle works with people who identify as LGBT and with a broad mix of personal and emotional challenges. Her aim is to help clients find clearer thinking and more useful ways to cope. Based in the United Kingdom, Michelle holds BACP accreditation.

She offers practical, approachable counselling and will talk through options and next steps at a pace that feels right for each person.

Ways of working Michelle names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred care delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person from their own point of view. The counsellor reflects what they hear, which helps people feel heard and begin to make sense of difficult feelings. This approach can be helpful for issues such as anxiety, grief, relationship concerns and the effects of trauma.

Michelle aims to work collaboratively to find the right approach. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and adjust methods as therapy progresses. Finding the best fit is treated as a joint process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy is offered by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and have more conversational sessions. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging allow flexible, on-the-go communication and can fit around work or caring commitments. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and schedules while maintaining consistent therapeutic support.
