About Me

Level 5 Advanced Counsellor in Psychotherapeutic Training — Worcester

I’m Michael, a Level 5 Advanced Counsellor in Psychotherapeutic Training and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP).

I provide in-person counselling in Worcester (WR2), where you can expect a warm, welcoming and confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences safely and at your own pace.

How I Work

As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of approaches — including person-centred, psychodynamic, and attachment-based models — to tailor our sessions to your individual needs.

Counselling is a collaborative process: we will explore your emotions, thoughts, and behavioural patterns together, we identify recurring themes, helping you develop greater understanding, resilience, and self-compassion.

Areas I Can Help With

I offer counselling support for a range of emotional and relational challenges, includin g:

• Anxiety and stress
  
  

• Trauma and post-traumatic experiences
  
  

• Grief, loss and bereavement
  
  

• Relationship and family difficulties
  
  

• Low self-esteem and self-worth
  
  

• Depression and low mood
  
  

• Life transitions and identity issues
  
  

My Counselling Ethos

Therapy offers more than relief from distress — it’s an opportunity to rediscover your sense and connection to true self, make meaningful change at your own pace and unburden yourself from negative feelings, thoughts and behaviours that have held you back for years and prevent you from enjoying the life you deserve to live.  

If you’re thinking about starting counselling, I offer a free 15-minute introductory call to explore what counselling might look and feel like for you  and how I can support you in acheiving this.
