Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear goals and steps you can try between meetings. He aims for calm, honest conversations where people feel heard and guided. His background includes eight years of clinical experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Michael draws on evidence-based methods to address mood, anxiety and behaviour patterns. He blends structured skills with attention to feelings and relationships. In practice he often uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and actions.

He also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape behaviour in close connections. Mindfulness techniques are introduced to reduce reactivity and build present-moment coping. People can expect a clear plan at the start.

Michael checks progress regularly and adapts the approach as needs shift. He welcomes straightforward questions and helps you decide practical next steps for everyday life.

How CBT EFT and Mindfulness translate to online sessions

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and change the actions that follow. Online CBT often uses clear exercises and homework that can be reviewed during video or message-based sessions to track progress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on emotions and how they shape close relationships. In online work this can mean using video calls to talk through emotional patterns and rehearse new ways of responding in real time. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These short practices fit well into phone or chat sessions and can be practised between meetings. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That may mean starting with more structured CBT exercises, then adding emotion-focused work or mindfulness when it suits the person. Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and role work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit around busy days. Live chat or text-based messaging suits short check-ins, notes between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and tailored to everyday life.
