About Michelle
Michelle Taylor works on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief and depression through a Person-Centred approach. She uses that approach to let clients set the pace and decide what to focus on. Michelle is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 11 years of experience.
Michelle sees adults from different backgrounds and helps them talk through difficult experiences. She supports people coping with domestic and sexual abuse, bereavement, addiction and self-harm related concerns. She also works with issues such as parenting, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, panic and bipolar-related coping. Sessions concentrate on what the person brings and on practical ways to manage day-to-day challenges.
Her client-centred method means sessions move at the client’s speed. The counsellor focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is suited to people who want to work through feelings, explore attachment or abandonment issues, or think about life changes such as separation or career shifts.
Michelle draws on eleven years of practice to support people affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, and substance issues as well as those needing end-of-life and hospice-related counselling. She helps people unpack guilt, shame and intimacy-related concerns and works with LGBT issues and ADHD-related coping strategies.
She works in English and accepts international clients. Sessions are arranged via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary by location. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Michelle uses client-centred work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person in front of the counsellor. It involves reflecting what someone says and supporting them to find their own solutions, which can help with anxiety, grief, relationship issues and coping after abuse. This approach keeps the pacing and focus under the client’s control and suits people who prefer to work through feelings at their own speed.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michelle will discuss how Client-Centred work fits your needs and agree together whether to continue with this approach or adapt it. That discussion is collaborative and based on your goals and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in her biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or offer audio-only conversations if someone prefers not to use video. These practical benefits help people maintain continuity of care while arranging therapy around everyday commitments.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
