Michael Clement, BACP

Michael Clement is a UK-registered counsellor who combines formal counselling training with years of hands-on care from his previous career as a professional nurse. He draws on that clinical background to offer empathetic, practical support for people facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and challenges with self-esteem.

He works in a person-centred way that places the client at the heart of the process, helping individuals explore their feelings, beliefs, and behaviours so they can increase self-awareness and build lasting independence. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs, and he aims to help people identify personal strengths and options for coping when life feels overwhelming.

Michael’s formal qualifications include a BA Honours degree in Counselling Studies and Supervision, a Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling, a Foundation Certificate in Bereavement Counselling, and a Diploma in General Nursing. He is a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), which reflects his professional registration in the UK.

In addition to core areas such as stress, anxiety, and depression, he has experience addressing abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, family problems, men’s issues, midlife crisis, financial worries, and workplace difficulties. He accepts international clients and offers flexible ways to work together to support personal growth and healing.

Person-Centred Support and Online Therapy Options

Michael practices in a person-centred way, a humanistic approach that places the client at the centre of the therapeutic relationship. This method focuses on creating an accepting, non-judgemental space where individuals lead the conversation and explore their feelings, values, and goals to increase self-awareness and personal growth. It is often helpful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship struggles, anxiety, and general life transitions.

In addition, Michael offers focused bereavement support informed by his foundation certificate in bereavement counselling. This work helps people process loss, navigate grief reactions, and find ways to adapt after significant life changes. Both approaches emphasise empathy, respect, and the client’s own expertise in their life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts the way he works as those needs change. Online therapy can be arranged by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support from registered professionals without the need to travel, helping people engage in therapy in ways that suit their daily life.
