About Michele
Michele Attias is a BACP therapist and life coach who works in English and Spanish. She focuses on helping people who feel stressed, anxious, overwhelmed or who are moving through painful life changes. Michele aims to make early contact easier by listening carefully and offering a calm, practical way forward.
She uses a client-centred, integrative approach that draws on several therapies to match what each person needs. Sessions look at the whole picture - physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual aspects - so practical choices can fit everyday life. Michele supports people to become clearer decision-makers and to take action without added stress or burnout.
Her work commonly addresses anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, self‑esteem, parenting pressures, career strain and challenges such as ADHD and addiction. She also offers support around abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, caregiving stress and issues linked to adoption and fostering.
With around 20 years' experience, Michele blends methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment‑based ideas with emotionally focused, client‑centred conversations. She and the client decide together whether short or longer term work best fits the goals.
People can expect practical steps in sessions aimed at improving concentration, time management and energy levels. Michele encourages small, doable changes to reduce overwhelm and rebuild a steadier daily routine.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Michele commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment‑based ideas alongside client‑centred conversations. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values; it is often useful for anxiety, rumination and stress. Attachment‑based approaches look at how early relationships shape current patterns, helping people understand their emotional responses and build more secure ways of relating. Client‑centred work focuses on listening and creating a non‑judgemental space, so clients can make sense of their experience and set their own goals.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Michele discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods as the work develops. This means the plan can change if something different would suit better later on.
Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier, for example by removing travel time and allowing appointments around work or caregiving. It can also allow shorter check‑ins that fit between tasks, or sessions without video when bandwidth or energy is limited.
