About Michaela
Michaela Kendall is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She works with individuals facing relationship and family tensions, grief and loss, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, trauma and intimacy-related problems. Michaela aims to create a respectful, sensitive and compassionate space where people can check in and slow down.
Michaela uses a straightforward, person-centred way of working. She listens closely and adapts sessions to what each person needs.
Background and approach
Conversations are paced to match the client, with room for emotion and for finding practical next steps. Her background includes four years of professional practice in the United Kingdom and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has included supporting people through major life changes and the steady work of rebuilding after loss or stressful events.
Michaela often draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in close relationships. She also uses emotionally focused ways of working to help people name and shift painful feelings. Mindfulness and trauma-focused techniques appear in sessions when they suit the person’s goals.
Sessions typically combine listening, reflection and small practical tasks to try between meetings. Michaela aims to help people feel less alone, to clarify what they want next, and to grow skills for coping with daily pressures.
Therapeutic approaches and online access
Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect present trust and connection. It can help people understand repeated dynamics in partnerships and feel safer naming needs. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and shift painful emotions that keep them stuck, offering ways to respond differently in stressful moments. Mindfulness therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and to build steadier coping with anxiety and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Michaela will work collaboratively to decide what feels most useful based on a person's concerns, goals and preferences. Together they can try different methods and adjust the mix over time to match changing needs.
Online therapy here is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work, phone can be easier when bandwidth or travel are an issue, chat or messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and other commitments while still accessing registered or accredited professionals and experienced therapists.
