About Mika
Mika Felstead is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief and other life changes. She works in a down-to-earth way and focuses on what each person brings to sessions. Mika aims to listen without judgement and to treat people with respect and compassion.
She practises a pluralistic style, which means sessions are shaped around the client’s needs and preferences. That might include talking things through, trying short mindfulness exercises, or focusing on practical steps to reduce day-to-day worry.
Background and approach
Mika keeps the pace guided by the person in the room so goals feel manageable. Mika holds an NCPS credential, which she notes alongside regular supervision and continuing professional development. She has five years of experience supporting people with family conflict, bereavement including pet loss, relationship concerns, addictions, trauma and other common life stresses.
Sessions can vary in length and scheduling to fit a client’s life, and Mika is willing to be flexible about appointment times.

Her practical approach combines listening, simple mindfulness where helpful, and goal-focused conversation.
People who want a calm, patient counsellor who adapts the work to their needs may find her style reassuring.

How Mika’s approaches can help online
Client-Centred Therapy puts your experience first. The counsellor listens closely and follows the topics you bring. This approach helps when you want a space to be heard and to make sense of difficult feelings.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to calm the body and mind. It can be useful for stress, anxiety and moments when thoughts feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mika will discuss options with each person and choose methods that match their goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging lets people reflect in between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week and to keep continuity when life feels uncertain.
