About Michael
Michael Mourant is a BACP counsellor with four years' experience based in the United Kingdom. He works mainly with stress, anxiety, relationships, family matters and depression, and uses a person-centred approach in his practice.
Michael offers straightforward, talk-based therapy that aims to help people notice what matters to them. Sessions focus on listening, reflection and helping the client find their own answers rather than imposing solutions. He describes his method as person-centred, which prioritises the client's perspective in each session.
He has a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He attends regular professional and peer supervision to keep his practice under review and to support ongoing professional development.
Clients commonly bring stress, anxiety, relationship or family difficulties, depression, and issues connected to addiction, trauma or grief. Michael also works with concerns such as intimacy, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger and self-esteem. He lists additional focus areas including abandonment, commitment issues, guilt and shame, isolation and post-traumatic stress.
Sessions aim to be practical and conversational. Michael helps people reflect on recurring patterns, notice unhelpful thinking, and consider small changes that make daily life easier. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session are used to establish initial goals and fit.

How person-centred work adapts to online sessions
Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client brings. The therapist aims to follow the client's concerns, offering questions and reflections that help the person notice patterns and decide on next steps. This approach is often used for stress, anxiety, relationship issues and depression because it centres the client's perspective.Sessions emphasise the client's experience rather than teaching specific techniques. The counsellor works collaboratively to identify what feels most useful, and adjusts the way they respond as the client's goals become clearer. Finding the best therapeutic fit is treated as a shared process across the first few meetings.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy routine and reducing travel time. Online appointments can make it easier to keep regular contact and schedule brief check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals will then explain how they run sessions and help choose an arrangement that fits the client’s daily life.
