Michael Clement trained in counselling after a long career in nursing.

About Michael

Michael Clement trained in counselling after a long career in nursing. He is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and has five years' experience working directly with people who are struggling. He writes plainly and listens carefully so clients can talk through what matters to them.

His work is suitable for people dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood and grief. He also supports those facing relationship strain, past trauma or abuse, and challenges with self-esteem.

Background and approach

Additional areas he commonly addresses include attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, and issues around money or work. Michael uses a person-centred approach, also described as Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions are led by the client and focus on helping people understand their feelings and choices.

He encourages people to bring the topics they want to discuss rather than directing the conversation. In sessions he aims to treat people with respect and sensitivity. He helps clients identify their own strengths and resources so they can make decisions that suit their life.

The emphasis is on building self-awareness and confidence over time. Michael offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. He provides a range of online formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and needs.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and he aims to offer steady support through that process.

Ways of working Michael names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred support delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy is the main approach Michael uses. It focuses on you leading the conversation while the counsellor offers empathy and reflection. This helps people clarify their feelings, make sense of their experiences and decide on next steps.

Michael's background in nursing informs a calm and practical style. He listens for what matters most to you and helps you identify personal strengths and options. This collaborative process means the approach can be adjusted as goals and needs become clearer.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls work well for a full conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging can be useful for brief updates, written reflection or people who prefer writing to talking.

Using these formats gives more flexibility for fitting therapy around work and family life and for connecting from different locations. Michael will work with you to choose the format and pace that fit your circumstances and preferences.
