Michelle Morgan, BACP

Michelle draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding feelings and building skills. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try clearer, more helpful ways of thinking and behaving; it is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach focuses on skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping - practical tools people can use between sessions to feel steadier.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and together they will choose methods that match the person's goals, needs and preferences. This collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let people have a fuller face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone wants to be off camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling and written notes to reflect on between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and other routines, while still working with registered or accredited professionals and experienced therapists.
