About Michele
Michele Attias is a BACP counsellor who helps people handle stress, anxiety, grief and life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make sessions feel calm and straightforward. Michele works with people who want clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping skills.
Michele uses an integrative, client-centred style. That means she adapts what happens in sessions to match each person’s needs. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural ideas, acceptance and commitment work, and emotionally-focused methods to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding.
Background and approach
Her background spans 20 years supporting people with depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction and anger, as well as parenting stresses and career pressures. She also addresses specific issues such as attachment and abandonment, body image, neurodiversity, and sexual diversity topics including BDSM and kink. Michele writes about wellbeing and practical change in her book Look Inside: Stop Seeking Start Living.
In sessions Michele focuses on practical steps and clearer decision-making. She helps clients reduce overthinking, manage overwhelm and improve concentration and energy. Conversations aim to leave people feeling more focused and able to act on what matters to them.
Sessions can be short term or longer term depending on needs. Michele accepts international clients and offers appointments in English and Spanish to suit different schedules and time zones.

Approaches that translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on chosen values and committed action; it can help with anxiety, low mood and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives practical strategies to manage symptoms like panic, sleeplessness or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and patterns in relationships to improve emotional connection and reduce repeated conflict.Michele treats finding the right approach as a collaborative step. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that match the client's needs. Over time the plan can be adjusted if something isn’t helping.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, and chat or messaging work well for quick reflections or people who prefer writing. These options help clients fit therapy into busy lives and across time zones while keeping focus on therapeutic progress.
