Michelle Sewell, BACP

Michelle Sewell is a counsellor who draws on a blend of approaches to help people navigate difficult life moments. She uses an integrative style that adapts to each person's needs and priorities. Michelle communicates plainly and aims to make therapy feel like a shared process rather than something done to someone.

She offers space to look at recent problems or to revisit past patterns that still affect day-to-day life. Sessions can focus on immediate, practical steps when that is needed and also on understanding deeper emotional themes when that is helpful. Michelle emphasises collaboration and supports people to set goals that matter to them.

With four years of experience, Michelle has worked with people facing stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. Her background includes work with grief, parenting and workplace issues as well as concerns such as self-esteem, intimacy questions and midlife crisis. She brings this experience into the room in a straightforward, non-judgemental way.

Michelle's clinical approaches include Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas. She draws on these methods to help with things like coping skills, emotion regulation and improving communication.

Michelle is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. Sessions are offered in English and she works from the United Kingdom. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Michelle's approaches can work online

Michelle regularly integrates Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) into her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions, which can help with confidence and decision-making. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Michelle will work collaboratively to identify what feels most useful - for example choosing more skill-based work or more reflective exploration depending on your goals. She adapts the plan over time based on what helps you make progress.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work, childcare or other commitments.
