Michelle Greer, BACP

Michelle Greer is a BACP counsellor who offers thoughtful, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or low mood. She writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person. Michelle aims to create a calm space where someone can start to untangle difficult feelings and think about next steps.

With three years of practice, Michelle focuses on worries about relationships, intimacy and family strain. She also works with people affected by trauma and abuse, ADHD-related challenges, and the heavy feelings that come with shame, guilt or isolation. Her interest in attachment-related concerns informs how she notices patterns in relationships and emotional responses.

Michelle draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early experiences shape current connections. She uses client-centred therapy to follow the person’s pace and priorities in sessions. Together these approaches help people feel heard and begin to try different ways of coping.

Sessions typically explore practical steps for communication, self-compassion and managing anxiety day-to-day. Michelle pays attention to small changes that add up, such as setting boundaries or practising ways to soothe strong emotions. She aims to make therapy useful and relevant to everyday life.

People can expect straightforward language and a non-judgemental manner. Michelle works in English from the United Kingdom and offers a range of online formats to suit different needs. She helps people take the next step toward feeling steadier and more connected.

How attachment and client-centred approaches translate online

Michelle uses attachment-based work to notice how past relationship experiences affect current feelings and reactions. This approach helps when intimacy, abandonment or trust issues are causing anxiety or isolation. It looks at patterns and supports people to try different ways of connecting with others.

Client-centred therapy means the counsellor follows the person’s lead and values their goals. Sessions focus on what the individual wants to change, at a pace they find comfortable. Together the therapist and client decide which ideas and techniques to try next in a collaborative way.

Online therapy makes these approaches easier to access from everyday life. Video calls let people use facial cues and tone when working on relationship patterns. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter check-ins, more flexible timing and the chance to reflect in writing. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods to fit each person’s needs and practical circumstances, helping therapy fit around work, family or other commitments.
