About Michael
Michael Broad is a counsellor in the United Kingdom and a member of the National Counselling Society (NCPS). He offers a tailored, client-focused approach that begins with practical steps to reduce immediate distress. He aims to help people rebuild confidence, manage anxiety and stress, and find clearer direction during difficult times.
He works in an integrative way, matching methods to each person's needs rather than using a single fixed style. Early sessions often focus on simple techniques to ease symptoms such as overthinking or panic. As trust grows, he helps people look deeper at emotions, relationships and past experiences that shape current patterns.
Michael also has experience supporting people affected by addiction and helping them move towards more stable, sober routines. He values personal responsibility and encourages people to use their own strengths to shape change. This practical focus is balanced with time to process painful feelings and difficult memories.
His practice covers a wide range of concerns including grief, self-esteem, trauma and relationship struggles. He works with career and parenting pressures as well as issues like anger and body image. Sessions are conducted in English and with a UK base in mind.
Starting therapy with Michael involves a clear sign-up process and a short matching questionnaire. He aims to help people develop resilience and create more meaningful, manageable lives.
How his approaches shape online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the counsellor. It helps people feel heard and supported while they make their own decisions about change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then taking action that matches personal values to build a more meaningful life.Finding the right fit is a shared process. The counsellor will work together with the client to try approaches that suit their goals and preferences. Over time they will adjust techniques so sessions remain helpful, whether the immediate aim is symptom relief or deeper exploration.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for quieter, focused conversations. Sessions can also be adapted for shorter check-ins or longer exploratory work depending on what the person needs and what the therapist offers.
