About Michelle
Michelle Singh is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression and aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable. Michelle emphasises practical, everyday language so conversations are straightforward and clear.
She believes clients know their own stories best and draws on those strengths during sessions. Michelle uses a mix of approaches, including cognitive behavioural therapy, psychodynamic ideas and acceptance and commitment therapy to shape the work.
Background and approach
That means sessions can focus on changing unhelpful thoughts, looking at patterns from the past, or learning to accept difficult feelings while building a life that matters to the client. Sessions can be held by video call, telephone or live instant messaging, giving options for different needs and schedules.
Michelle offers guidance on coping skills and on ways to manage day-to-day stressors, sleep problems and relationship concerns. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, awkward intimacy issues and challenges around identity. Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person.
Michelle will work alongside someone to set goals, try new strategies and check what is and isn’t helpful. The aim is steady, useful progress rather than quick fixes. Michelle is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP, and works with clients in English.
She accepts international clients and uses a subscription model for sessions.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Michelle uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she uses; it focuses on noticing difficult emotions, clarifying values and taking small steps towards a meaningful life. Client-centred work provides a warm, non-judgemental space where the client’s own perspective guides the pace and focus of therapy.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Michelle will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then tailor methods together. The process is collaborative and reviewed as progress is made so adjustments can be made when needed.
Online therapy is offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which helps fit sessions around work, childcare or other commitments. Phone calls are helpful if bandwidth is limited or the client prefers no video. Live chat and messaging provide shorter, flexible check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity and maintain therapeutic momentum even when life is busy.
