About Michaela

Michaela Kendall offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or major life changes. She speaks plainly and sits with clients as they name what feels hard. Her first aim is to make time feel manageable again and to help people take a first step towards clearer thinking and steadier moods.

She uses a blend of approaches to suit each person. Sessions focus on what the client is facing now, and on small, useful shifts that reduce daily pressure.

Background and approach

Michaela listens for how past experiences shape present worries and brings exercises that help people notice patterns and try different ways of relating to themselves and others. Her background includes four years of professional practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

That experience includes supporting people after trauma and helping with grief, relationship strain and difficulties with self-esteem. In sessions she draws on attachment-based ideas to look at close relationships, emotionally-focused work for painful feelings, and mindfulness to build steady attention in stressful moments. Trauma-focused tools are used when people need help to process difficult past events.

Michaela aims to tailor each session to the person in front of her. She welcomes questions about how therapy will run and what practical steps might help between sessions. The focus is on steady progress and clearer choices, not quick fixes.

How Michaela’s approaches work online

Michaela uses attachment-based therapy to look at how close relationships shape feelings and behaviour. This approach helps people understand patterns in relationships and try new ways of relating to partners or family members.

She also uses emotionally-focused therapy, which focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions. EFT helps when feelings like fear, grief or anger get in the way of communicating or connecting with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michaela will talk about different options and decide with each person what fits their goals and comfort. The choice will reflect the client’s needs and preferences rather than a single method imposed from the start.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy fit modern life. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and body language. Phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter updates, journalling between sessions or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These formats make it easier to book around work and family life and to keep steady contact while progressing with therapy.
