Never doing therapy before I was very nervous going in, but having a person centered therapist means I can do things in the way that suits me. There is no expectation from Michelle, she makes me think about what my reasons are and calls me out when I’m unrealistic. I couldn’t recommend her enough after only 3 weeks I’m learning more about myself than I thought possible.

Working with Michelle has been an incredibly valuable experience for me.
At an extremely challenging time in my life, she helped me to find perspective, has challenged my beliefs and has helped shine a clear light on my lived experiences and some of my core beliefs.

Michelle is always there. She really cares above and beyond. She allows me to be me and then gives me strong advice when I need it. That is nothing generic, I mean advice totally based on me and my needs and she gives it in a timely manner. Her timing is excellent. She knows when to listen and when to help. Michelle is a truly genuine and caring person.
Written on May 14, 2022 after therapy with Michelle for 3 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and parenting issues
Michelle helped me to come to terms with my grief and family conflict over a family member's illness and passing. She helped me to resolve the anger and anxiety that I felt as a result of these events, and to come up with coping strategies going forward. If I ever need to speak with a therapist again, I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to her again.

Speaking with Michelle is like speaking with a good friend but without having the fear of being a burden or judgement, she one of life's guardian angels - she just sheds the light with such a positive energy, her technique is very laid back and non pressurised. I love that its nothing like I have experienced before.
