Michelle King, BACP

Michelle King is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with eight years of experience. She offers one-to-one support to people facing anxiety, stress, loss, trauma and life changes, including help with ADHD. She aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through what matters to them and begin to find clearer next steps.

Her work is person-centred, so sessions focus on the individual's needs and pace. That might mean traditional talking therapy, strategy-focused work, or creative activities offered alongside conversation. Michelle listens without judgment and gently challenges unhelpful patterns when appropriate.

She often looks at past experiences to understand how they affect current feelings and behaviour. This can help with issues such as attachment concerns, abandonment, family of origin problems, communication difficulties and feelings of emptiness. She also supports people dealing with grief, separation and fertility-related stress.

Michelle has particular experience with neurodivergence and related concerns such as Autism and Asperger Syndrome, and with pressures faced by caregivers and first responders. Her approach is practical and people-focused, aiming to help clients notice everyday thought patterns and habits they want to change.

Sessions can be short or long term depending on need. She works from the United Kingdom and provides services in English. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Michelle draws on person-centred practice, which means sessions focus on the client's priorities and pace. In person-centred work the therapist listens deeply, reflects what they hear and follows the client's lead to build understanding and trust. This approach can help with anxiety, grief and managing life transitions.

She also uses practical, strategy-based techniques to help people notice and change everyday thoughts and habits. These are short, task-oriented steps that target unhelpful routines, which can be useful for stress, ADHD-related challenges and coping with difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that suit the person's needs. Adjustments are made as work progresses so the approach fits both the problem and the individual's way of working.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt in-session activities and practical tasks to work effectively across remote appointments.
