About Miguel

Miguel Echeverria is a BACP registered counsellor with four years' clinical experience in the United Kingdom. He speaks English and Spanish. Miguel works with issues such as guilt and shame alongside stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and addictions.

His own migration story and recovery from depression and addiction shape his outlook. He trained at Re-vision and holds a Diploma in Integrative Transpersonal Counselling. He also works for a mental health charity in the UK.

Miguel uses an integrative, depth-orientated approach rooted in psychodynamic ideas. He looks at early relationships and life events to understand patterns that keep repeating. At the same time he attends to what might grow from those difficulties rather than only teaching coping steps.

Sessions often bring imagination, myth and storytelling into the conversation. These methods are used to reach feelings and meanings that words alone can miss. He describes problems as possible gateways to a more authentic sense of self rather than only as symptoms to fix.

Practical work is shaped by each person's history and current needs. Miguel listens for what is said and for what is left unspoken, and adapts the focus over time. People choosing him should be prepared for reflective, depth-orientated work that looks at both past attachments and present struggles.

How Miguel’s approaches translate to online work

Miguel draws on Attachment-Based and Psychodynamic ideas to guide online work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how they affect current feelings, which can help with issues like guilt, shame and loneliness. Psychodynamic work pays attention to how early experiences shape repeated ways of thinking and relating, useful for exploring long-standing attachment wounds and emotional patterns. Finding the right way of working is treated as a collaborative process. He will discuss different approaches with clients and adapt the focus based on their needs, goals and preferences rather than prescribing a single method from the start. Please confirm which session formats are available before booking because the biography does not list them. When arranging online sessions, practical benefits include fitting meetings around work and family routines, using shorter check-ins when time is tight, or choosing options that need less bandwidth when internet connection is limited. These practical choices can make it easier to keep continuity of contact and to bring what is happening in everyday life into the session.
