Michelle Lindsay , BACP

Michelle Lindsay is a UK-based counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body for counsellors in the United Kingdom. With four years of hands-on experience, she supports people facing a wide range of challenges including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low mood and depression, self-esteem issues, relationship and family concerns, work and student pressures, grief, and intimacy-related difficulties.

She works with clients in both online and in-person settings and has experience in private practice as well as within community organisations. Michelle takes an integrative humanistic approach that draws primarily on client-centered and existential therapies and emphasises the therapeutic relationship as the core of change. She may also draw on elements from other models such as Gestalt, attachment theory, or cognitive behavioral techniques when these fit a client’s needs and preferences.

Michelle approaches each person as the expert of their own story and aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore what matters most to them. She works collaboratively to understand what has brought someone to counselling and to identify practical, personally meaningful ways forward. Michelle seeks to empower clients to build on their strengths and take steps toward a more fulfilling life when they are ready to begin.
