Michelle Singh is a counsellor with five years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people untangle stress, anxiety and low mood. Michelle invites people to talk about what matters to them and to build on strengths they already have.
She draws on a mix of approaches to match the problem and the person. That can mean looking at unhelpful thinking patterns with cognitive behavioural therapy, noticing values and action with acceptance and commitment therapy, or exploring how past events shape present feelings through psychodynamic ideas.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. Michelle works with a wide range of concerns from relationship and intimacy questions to grief, trauma and parenting strain. She also supports people dealing with ADHD-related difficulties, chronic pain or caregiving stress, and challenges linked to attachment, abandonment or blended family dynamics.
Her practice includes attention to sexual diversity and kink-aware conversations when relevant. Sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different schedules and preferences. She aims for clear goals and small, achievable steps so people notice change between appointments.
Michelle encourages clients to treat therapy as a shared project rather than a one-way process. Her BACP credential is listed as a statement of professional registration. If someone wants to start, the usual route is to complete an initial matching questionnaire and book a time that fits their schedule.
Online therapy methods and how they help
Michelle often uses cognitive behavioural therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and actions. CBT can be useful for anxiety, sleeping problems and low mood because it gives clear tools to test and shift patterns that keep difficulties going.She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which focuses on what matters to the person and small steps towards those values. ACT helps with stress, chronic health challenges and situations where people feel stuck despite trying to control painful feelings.
Choosing the best approach is a shared task. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and practicalities and adjust methods as the work progresses. That means treatment can be tried, reviewed and changed so it fits the person's life and aims.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video gives face-to-face style contact when a visual connection helps. Phone sessions can be faster check-ins or suit lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging work well for shorter, flexible conversations or when someone prefers typed reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel without losing continuity of care.
