Michaela Grecu is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She holds the NCPS credential from the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. Michaela works in a respectful, collaborative way and aims to make sessions approachable and practical.

Her background includes a degree in psychology and postgraduate diplomas in hypnotherapy and in psychotherapy and counselling. The NCPS registration is listed to show her professional standing and commitment to ethical practice.

Background and approach

Michaela tends to tailor her methods to each person. She draws on client-centred ideas, cognitive behavioural tools, mindfulness and hypnotherapy as needed. That means sessions can include talking things through, noticing unhelpful patterns, and practising simpler ways to manage symptoms day to day.

She helps people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and career worries. Other areas she supports include ADHD, addictions, trauma and grief, eating and sleeping problems, parenting-related strain and anger. She also works on intimacy-related issues, coping with life changes and building healthier habits.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Michaela aims to help people understand their thoughts and feelings, try manageable changes, and make decisions that feel right for them. People meet practical tools alongside reflective conversation.

Her approach suits someone who wants friendly, professional support and clear steps to feel steadier. Michaela offers sessions that can be short or longer term depending on what works for the person.

Approaches and online therapy that fit your life

Michaela commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they are, helping them feel heard and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and offers practical steps to change patterns that cause distress.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed. Mindfulness can be useful for anxiety, stress and managing difficult moods by building simple attention skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michaela will talk through goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before, then try methods that match those needs. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress happens.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection and people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping continuity of care.
