I’ve gained a lot of perspective through the work I am doing with Michelle. I am very glad I made the decision to book therapy with Michelle. The techniques I have learned from her will help me navigate my feelings around past trauma and I am very grateful for that.

Michelle has without a doubt given me the strength courage and information I needed to change my life from a scared, anxious, angry young person to a person who is lighter happier and more in control of my own self and my future. I couldn’t recommend Michelle enough, I didn’t feel judged at all and was so supported . If I could afford endless sessions then I would never stop therapy.

Michelle has genuinely saved my life. Without her support, kind words and real, achievable help and advice I would not be in a place where I can heal and move on. I am able to understand my trauma and how it is impacting me on a day to day basis and how I can still function whilst healing.
She has given me the tools to achieve things I didn’t think I could do and to process everything in a healthy way.
