Areas
of Focused
Therapeutic Support
Every person who comes to therapy arrives carrying something unique. Michelle's practice is built around a deep understanding of the specific territories where life can be most challenging — offering focused, compassionate care at every threshold.
Grief & Bereavement
Grief is one of the most profound human experiences — and one of the most isolating. Whether you are mourning the death of someone you love, the end of a relationship, the loss of a life you had imagined, or a part of yourself, grief deserves to be held with care and without agenda.
Michelle provides a compassionate, unhurried space where grief is welcomed exactly as it arrives — in all its complexity, contradiction, and non-linearity. There is no prescribed timeline, no stage you should be reaching. You are met precisely where you are.
- Bereavement following the death of a loved one
- Anticipatory grief and preparing for loss
- Complicated or prolonged grief
- Disenfranchised grief (losses not publicly acknowledged)
- Grief after relationship breakdown or divorce
Anxiety & Stress
Anxiety can take many forms — a persistent undercurrent of worry that never quite settles, sudden panic, physical tension, burnout, or a sense of dread that follows you without an obvious cause. Whatever shape it takes in your life, it is real, and it is workable.
Michelle works alongside you to understand the roots of your anxiety — not just to manage symptoms, but to rebuild a genuine sense of internal safety. Together, you will explore patterns of thought and feeling, develop practical strategies, and move towards a steadier relationship with uncertainty.
- Generalised anxiety and chronic worry
- Panic attacks and physical anxiety responses
- Work-related stress and burnout
- Social anxiety and isolation
- Health anxiety and somatic symptoms
Relationship & Family
Relationships are at the heart of human experience — and they can be the source of our greatest joy and our deepest pain. Whether you are navigating communication difficulties, family conflict, separation, co-parenting challenges, or the aftermath of a relationship that has changed, therapy can offer clarity and a way forward.
Michelle works with individuals and family members to explore relational patterns, understand what lies beneath conflict, and build healthier, more connected ways of being with one another and with oneself.
- Communication difficulties and recurring conflict
- Separation, divorce, and family restructuring
- Parent-child relational difficulties
- Estrangement and family breakdown
- Life transitions affecting family systems

End-of-Life Care
Drawing on years of experience as a Registered Nurse and her training as a Soul Midwife, Michelle offers a uniquely integrated form of end-of-life support — one that brings together clinical understanding, therapeutic skill, and deep human presence.
This work sits at the intersection of medicine, emotion, and spirit. It is for those who are facing their own death, for those preparing to say goodbye to someone they love, and for those still carrying the weight of a loss that has not yet found its proper place.
