About Michael

Michael Iffil is a UK-licensed therapist with 15 years of professional experience supporting people across the lifespan, from young children to mature adults. He brings energy and commitment to his practice, working with individuals facing stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, motivation difficulties, depression, phobias and a wide range of relationship and life transition issues.

His clinical approach is integrative, drawing on psychotherapy, person-centred practice and cognitive behavioral techniques, with mindfulness-based ideas incorporated as appropriate. Michael tailors these methods to each person he meets, selecting the elements that best fit an individual’s needs and preferences rather than applying a single formula. He emphasizes a strengths-based outlook, believing that each person is the expert on their own story and already holds resources to support change.

Michael also works with challenges such as addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, family and fatherhood concerns, attachment and abandonment issues, panic and phobias, and career or multicultural matters. He holds membership of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. Michael aims to provide steady, collaborative support for those taking the often-difficult first step toward growth and a more satisfying life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an empathetic, non-judgmental space where the client’s own goals and insights guide the work. It is useful for building self-esteem, exploring relationship and attachment concerns, and fostering personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, panic, phobias, depression and anger management by offering practical strategies and skills. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-focused awareness and acceptance techniques that can reduce rumination, improve emotion regulation and support coping with stress and cravings.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Michael works with each person to understand their needs, goals and preferences before combining methods in a way that makes sense for them. He adapts his style over time as therapy progresses so the chosen methods remain relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives or to connect across distances. These options allow registered professionals and therapists to maintain ongoing support, accommodate different communication styles, and help people access care from wherever they are located.
