Michelle Morris , BACP

Michelle Morris is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression and self-esteem concerns. She also supports people facing relationship and family issues, parenting strain, addictions, grief and big life changes. Michelle has three years of professional experience and works from a respectful, compassionate stance.

She aims to adapt conversations and plans to each person. Sessions are framed around what matters to the client. Michelle listens for patterns in relationships and responses to stress, and then works with clients to try different ways of coping.

Her approach draws on attachment ideas, client-centred conversation, cognitive work and mindfulness. That means she pays attention to how past relationships shape current feelings, focuses on the client’s experience, and uses thought-focused and present-moment practices when helpful. Sessions are practical and grounded in your everyday life.

Michelle often helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try small experiments to test new behaviours. She supports people to rebuild confidence, manage mood swings, and make clearer decisions about work and relationships. Therapy aims to give tools you can use between sessions.

People who choose Michelle can use video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging for sessions. Her practice uses a subscription model where the plan can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect feelings and behaviour now. It helps when trust, closeness or repeated hurt shape how someone relates to others. Client-centred therapy puts the client’s experience first, with the counsellor offering acceptance and attentive listening so the client can find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behaviour changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Michelle treats it as a team effort. She will discuss your goals and preferences, try approaches that fit your needs, and adjust the plan as you learn what helps. The goal is to find practical ways to cope that feel manageable for you.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone calls can be lighter on bandwidth. Live chat and text allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility limits and help sustain support over time.
