About Mike

Mike Kelly is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and depression. He also supports those adjusting to big life changes and coping with loss.

He aims to make sessions straightforward and easy to follow. He encourages open conversation so clients can speak honestly about feelings and worries. He keeps language plain and avoids jargon so parents and busy people can understand each step.

Background and approach

In the room he listens closely and reflects what he hears. Together he and the client work out practical next steps and ways to try things differently between sessions. He pays attention to how relationships and workplaces affect mood and daily life.

Mike also helps people deal with issues linked to attachment, body image, feelings of emptiness, family problems, guilt and shame, isolation and life purpose. He can talk through concerns about narcissism, self-harm, self-love and workplace stress. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

That affiliation is part of his practice in the United Kingdom. If you decide to begin, he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first appointment.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Mike lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Approaches and how online therapy can help

Mike uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on listening, reflection and small practical changes. One common approach is talking therapy that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and ways to respond differently; this can help with anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach emphasises understanding relationship patterns and attachment - looking at how past and present relationships shape feelings and behaviour and finding new ways to connect.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mike will discuss different methods with clients and agree on a plan together. He aims to match techniques to each person's needs, goals and preferences so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face contact from anywhere with internet, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat lets you type in real time and messaging supports shorter check-ins between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, school runs or other commitments.
