About Michelle
Michelle Corrigan is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, life changes and matters such as addictions, sleep and eating difficulties. Michelle also supports people with self-esteem, career concerns and compassion fatigue, and she lists additional focuses including attachment and body image concerns.
She uses a person-centred way of working that concentrates on the here and now. Sessions are conversational and may include non-verbal, energetic elements when useful. The emphasis is on talking through what feels stuck and on practical steps that a client can try between sessions.
Michelle describes her practice as integrative with roots in person-centred and humanistic ideas. She also draws on Gestalt influences and mentions experience with yoga and shamanic practices, using creative methods where appropriate. This blend is used to look both at external circumstances and at how stress shows up in the body and emotions.
In session she will explore what is causing distress and how those issues affect thinking, feelings and physical sensations. Work can include noticing patterns, testing small changes and building clearer communication around relationship or career problems.
Michelle is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and practical details through the platform process provided.
How therapeutic approaches are used online
Michelle draws on person-centred and attachment-based ideas to focus on what is happening for a client now and on relational patterns that influence current feelings. Person-centred work emphasises listening and helping people find their own solutions, which can be useful for dealing with guilt, shame and low self-esteem. Attachment-based work looks at early relational patterns and how they affect trust and closeness in adult life, helping people understand repeating relationship dynamics.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michelle will collaborate with the client to identify which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and she may combine approaches as the work progresses. This collaborative selection helps keep sessions practical and responsive to what emerges.
The platform process asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and to schedule a first session. The biography does not list specific online formats, so prospective clients should confirm which session types are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow check-ins that are shorter when needed, and reduce travel time so work can fit around other responsibilities.
