I offer a space where you can be met as you are, where your experiences are explored with care and thoughtfulness. As a human-centred and attachment-focused psychologist, I work collaboratively with individuals aged 18 and over. I have a particular interest in supporting people through anxiety, low mood, stress, life transitions, trauma, grief and loss, as well as perinatal mental health, including the emotional experiences surrounding fertility, pregnancy and the transition to parenthood.
With over 8 years of clinical experience supporting people across a range of mental health concerns, my approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity and authentic connection. Drawing on attachment theory, trauma-informed practice and evidence-based approaches, we explore how past experiences may continue to shape your emotions, patterns and relationships.
I believe lasting change begins within a trusting therapeutic relationship. My hope is that therapy helps you develop a deeper understanding of yourself, strengthen your relationships, and navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, self-compassion and confidence.
Take the first step to help. Michelle Johnston now
