About me and my therapy practice


Compassionate Counsellor in Stroud specialising in Anxiety, Depression and Trauma Therapy. 

Hello there, I'm Michelle a compassionate, very experienced counsellor based near Stroud. I am dedicated to helping individuals and couples navigate life's inevitable bumps.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore all of your feelings and experiences, whether you are dealing with anxiety, trauma, CPTSD, PTSD, low self-esteem, depression or relationship difficulties. 

I offer:

Anxiety Counselling to help you manage overwhelming emotions and regain control.

Depression therapy by creating a safe space to explore and heal from emotional pain.

Trauma therapy for the far too many of us seeking to recover from difficult past experiences.

Relationship therapy for better communication and the strengthening of connections.

Stress management to cope with life's changes and transitions.

And Grief Counselling.

I am deeply passionate about empowering survivors of abuse to reclaim their narratives, finding strength in vulnerability and fostering an empowering resilience that knows no bounds. With a background rooted in psychology and a spirit fuelled by empathy, I offer a safe, nurturing space where healing is not only a goal but a tangible reality.

I believe that the relationship you build with your therapist will be far more important than the modality of counselling used. Will you feel safe enough to  peel of the layers and delve down deep enough to curiously explore what is holding you back or keeping you stuck in unhelpful patterns of behaviour? I aim to provide that safe space.

I continue to build my knowledge through regular CPD and through researching for writing and have a special interest in trauma and how our experience of it may lead us to go into hiding and stop us from living in an authentic way.  

In addition to i person sessions I offer online therapy to clients from Gloucestershire and beyond making it easier for you to access support from anywhere.



Practice description

My practice is based in my home in Brownshill but I am currently additionally offering online counselling for people around the country and abroad via a medical platform called Doxy.me

I specialise in trauma recovery, PTSD management, anxiety, depression and self-esteem but I have also completed training in couples therapy, BPD, CPTSD and autism and have worked as an associate counsellor for Mind and worked within a hospice helping the bereaved.

It has been my honour to work with many survivors of varying traumatic experiences and help them to rediscover their resilience, rebuild trust and embark on transformative journeys into healing leaving them feeling safe and connected in the world.
