Michelle King

Michelle King is a psychotherapeutic counsellor with eight years of experience. She works with adolescents and adults who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, trauma, grief or big life changes. She also supports people managing ADHD, relationship struggles and identity questions.

Her style is person-centred, so sessions are shaped around what the client brings. That might mean straightforward talking, strategy-focused work, or creative activities when they suit the person. Michelle aims to offer gentle challenge alongside steady support to help people make sense of their feelings and behaviour.

She often looks at how earlier experiences affect present choices and relationships. That can include attachment concerns, family of origin issues, or problems with abandonment and control. The focus is practical - to help people recognise patterns and try new ways of responding.

Michelle has worked with people facing trauma and abuse, self-harm, dissociation and loss. She also has experience with neurodivergence including autism and Asperger syndrome, and with practical stresses such as caregiver strain and blended family difficulties.

Sessions can be short or long term depending on what the person needs. Michelle offers one-to-one counselling and clinical supervision, and she uses a mix of talking, creative methods and strategy-based approaches to suit each person.

Therapeutic approaches and online counselling options

Michelle uses person-centred work that focuses on the client's priorities and experience, giving space to talk and to be heard. This approach helps when someone needs clarity about feelings, identity or difficult decisions.

She also integrates creative therapy alongside talking and strategy-based work. Creative techniques can help people express things that are hard to put into words, and they often suit those struggling with trauma, grief or complex emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods feel most helpful for a person's goals and preferences, and she will adapt the mix as the work progresses.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow someone to meet with a therapist from their local area when that helps. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or options that avoid being on camera, depending on the formats the service offers.
