About Michaela

Michaela Kendall is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, self-esteem, addictions, LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related matters, parenting, depression, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue. She offers person-centred support that aims to help people talk through difficult moments and find practical ways to cope.

Michaela uses approaches that include attachment-based work, client-centred practice, emotionally-focused therapy (EFT), mindfulness and trauma-focused methods. In sessions she listens for how past relationships and current patterns affect everyday life. She helps people notice emotional reactions and experiment with new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Sessions typically involve reflective conversation, gentle emotion work and skills-based strategies such as grounding or mindful awareness. Michaela explains things plainly and encourages small, manageable steps between sessions. Her style is straightforward and aimed at making things easier to name and address.

She explains that therapy often begins with practical goals and a short assessment conversation. That first stage is used to agree priorities and the best mix of approaches for each person. Over subsequent meetings she reviews progress and adjusts methods as needed.

Michaela works in English and does not accept international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients are asked to use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current feelings and expectations. Online sessions can be used to identify these patterns, try new ways of relating, and practise emotional responses in everyday contexts.

Client-centred therapy emphasises listening and reflecting rather than directing. In remote meetings this means the counsellor follows each person's pace, offers questions and summaries, and helps name feelings so practical steps become clearer.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognising and reshaping the emotional responses that drive relationship difficulties. In an online setting this approach can help people notice interaction patterns and rehearse different responses between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify goals, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust work as needs change. Clients are invited to feedback what is or is not helpful so the plan can be adapted together.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer audio-only meetings for lower bandwidth or quieter conversations; others choose video when they want face-to-face interaction. Registered or accredited professionals generally aim to match practical session arrangements to everyday life and responsibilities.
