About Michelle

Michelle Lindsay is a fully qualified counsellor and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) in the United Kingdom. She brings four years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low mood and depression, self-esteem and confidence concerns, work and student-related pressures, and relationship difficulties. Her practice also includes attention to parenting, grief, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, and a wide range of related life challenges.

She offers therapy both online and in person, working in private practice as well as within a community organisation. Michelle follows an integrative humanistic orientation that draws mainly on Person-Centred and Existential approaches and places strong emphasis on the therapeutic relationship. She adapts her work to individual needs and may incorporate elements from other approaches such as Gestalt, attachment-informed perspectives, or cognitive-behavioural techniques when appropriate.

Michelle takes a collaborative stance, listening without judgement and helping each person explore what has led them to seek support and what they hope to achieve. She frames clients as the experts in their own lives and aims to empower them to identify practical steps forward. When someone is ready to begin the process of change, Michelle offers steady, relational support to help them move toward a more fulfilling and manageable life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Michelle works from client-centred and existential perspectives. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, non-directive environment where the person is treated as the expert on their own life - this approach helps with low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and building confidence to make changes. Existential Therapy explores meaning, choice, and personal responsibility, supporting people who feel stuck by life transitions, emptiness, or questions about purpose.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Michelle collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt methods accordingly so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single model onto every situation.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it possible to access registered professionals from home or another convenient location and to choose a format that suits communication style and schedule. This variety helps people maintain continuity of care during busy periods, manage energy and accessibility needs, and integrate therapeutic work into everyday life.
