About Michaela
Michaela Kendall is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss. She uses a compassionate, respectful style and aims to make sessions feel calm and manageable. Michaela wants to offer a place to check in, slow down and begin to feel less alone.
She works in a way that is guided by each person's needs. Sessions are adapted so people can talk about trauma, family conflict, parenting strain, intimacy concerns, addictions and low self-esteem in ways that feel safe for them. Michaela names Client-Centred Therapy among her approaches and focuses on listening and responding to what each person brings.
She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) influences her work when the heart of an issue is how people connect and respond to others. Mindfulness and trauma-focused techniques may be used to help people manage stress and process painful experiences.
Michaela holds BACP credentials, which is recorded here as BACP. She has four years of professional experience working with adults in the UK. Her manner is steady and practical, aiming to help people understand themselves and take manageable steps forward.
If you are thinking about starting therapy, she encourages a first step of filling out a short questionnaire so you can be matched and schedule sessions that suit your life.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Michaela uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on each person's experience. This approach involves listening carefully and following the client's lead so sessions match what matters most to them. It can help with feelings of loneliness, low self-esteem and being overwhelmed by life.Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. This can be useful for people dealing with relationship distress, family conflict or intimacy concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on emotions in close relationships and helps people notice patterns in how they respond and connect.
Michaela treats choosing an approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and suggest options. Together they decide which methods feel most helpful and adjust the plan as needs change.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as fitting a short check-in during a work break or avoiding travel time.
