When I joined with Michelle, I had a back log of trauma from my parents and relationships that I hadn’t dealt with. It was piling on from being a child, into a teenager, into a grown adult. She really knows what she’s doing, and knows what you need within each session. Whether that’s to delve into the nitty gritty or just to talk about your day. I get a lot out of it and I feel so comfortable doing so. Will continue with Michelle for the foreseeable as therapy is the gym for your mind. Staying healthy!

During the pandemic I want through a very unexpected breakup, moved to London and quickly fell into a very toxic relationship. Choosing to go see Michelle was possibly the best thing I did for myself, at times it was really difficult facing someone of my traumas and really learning to set boundaries for myself and get out of a very unhealthy relationship. I wouldn’t be half the woman I’m now without her help. Just wanted to say a huge thank you for coming into my life when I needed it the most. Grateful for you

I was suffering with anxiety that I was not able to control like I had done in the past, which led me to a difficult place mentally. Michelle was always a kind ear to listen and help me understand how I was feeling and help me figure out why I felt how I did. She always helped me consider positive changes I could make to reduce my anxiety and it really helped having such a supportive outside perspective help me work through what I was going through.

She was a huge support during a difficult time for me when I was really struggling. I can now say that a big reason why I now feel in a good place is thanks to her help. She is flexible and happy to help, and I always felt I could be open and honest with her because I feel that she truly has her clients’ best interests at heart.

She is always very responsive and a good communicator, a genuine person who also understands that people need affordable talking therapy and sets out to deliver that. I’d highly recommend her to anyone searching for a therapist that ticks those boxes.

Before taking counselling with Michelle, I struggled with Autism for many years due to me denying that part of myself. I also have experienced a lot of family trauma in my early years and loneliness however since the sessions I had with her I have not only been able to completely accept my diagnosis but I also uncovered many repressed memories that I have tried to bury and finally let them go.

Michelle’s techniques enabled me to figure out practically every issue I had on my own by asking thought-provoking questions that allowed me to realise the causes of my issues because she doesn’t flat out tell you what your issues are, she finds a way for you to figure it out yourself and as a result just after 3 months of therapy with Michelle I became fully confident in myself and I no longer experience loneliness and I now navigate the world with a whole new perspective.

If you live in or near the Plumstead area and are in need of counselling for any of the issues that she specialises in, I would 100% recommend contacting Michelle and booking a session ASAP and if you are hesistant to seek counselling like I was due to the negative stigma surrounding people who get therapy, just know that it is OK to do so because it can really help you but be prepared to do what it takes to get to a better place mentally.

I have found my sessions with Michelle to be exactly what I needed and still need. She is an amazing listener and completely puts me at ease at all times. She knows when to ask the questions but also when she needs to let me verbalise my feelings and thoughts. I have found my meeting with Michelle have been valuable at a very challenging time in my life.

Excellent councillor and really helped my family

my teenage son seems to have engaged well and responding well to the sessions. As a parent I feel comfortable with Michelle and feel in a place where I can trust enough not to ask to many questions about the sessions!
