About Michael
Michael Broad is a counsellor in the United Kingdom and a member of the National Counselling Society (NCPS). He takes an integrative approach and adapts sessions to the needs of each person who comes to him. He has three years of experience and focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety and low mood while rebuilding confidence and self-esteem.
Michael believes early life experiences can shape how people relate to themselves and others.
Background and approach
In sessions he uses the relationship with the client to look at those patterns and to support change. Early work often focuses on practical steps to reduce symptoms such as overthinking or panic. As therapy continues, he helps people look more deeply at difficult emotions, recurring thoughts and strained relationships.
He uses approaches like acceptance and commitment therapy, client-centred and existential ideas, plus mindfulness practices to suit the situation. This mix lets him move between symptom relief and exploring underlying issues. He has experience supporting people with addiction and with finding ways to live more productively in recovery.
Michael emphasises personal responsibility and helps people author the next chapter of their lives while building resilience and strengths they already have. Contacting a counsellor can feel daunting, and Michael recognises the courage this takes. He aims to offer a straightforward, steady environment where practical steps and deeper reflection can happen side by side.

Approaches Michael lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Michael will work with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses, moving from symptom relief to deeper reflection when ready.
Online therapy offers practical benefits that suit many lives. Video calls let people see facial cues and work in a more conversational way. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing reflection between sessions and can fit around work or family commitments. These options make it easier to access regular sessions without travel while keeping therapy flexible.
