I’m Michelle, a Psychotherapist working with adults and couples whose current struggles are often shaped by earlier relational experiences, trauma, or emotional neglect. Many clients feel anxious, emotionally shut down, or stuck in repeating relationship patterns they don’t fully understand. I offer a compassionate, attachment-informed space where we explore how your past has shaped your nervous system and ways of relating, supporting safer connections with yourself and others.

I help people worldwide manage their ADHD better by using CBT alongside powerful approaches like ACT, DBT, MI and coaching skills.
I'm a specialist therapist for ADHD, with ADHD. You don't have to over-explain or justify your ADHD to me, because I get it. I know how overwhelming it can be, feeling stuck or 'too much' or like you're constantly falling behind. If you find yourself procrastinating despite knowing what you need to do, overthinking or struggling to focus. If you feel frustrated that things feel harder than they should be. If you're tired of ADHD burnout, the imposter syndrome, of not getting things done and feeling emotionally overwhelmed by everyday tasks - know that you're not alone. Together, we can help you overcome ADHD overwhelm.

I particularly enjoy exploring with clients how they can adjust to adversities such as health conditions, burnout and life stressors. Whilst I may draw on a range of ideas depending on the need, I endeavour to approach everyone's difficulties with patience, compassion and evidence-based practice

At The Bodart Practice we know that life can be fast-paced, stressful and overwhelming, leaving you without much time or energy for focusing on building the life you had imagined for yourself. As psychologists and holistic therapists, we recognised that the keys to creating fulfilment required helping people connect with all aspects of their life, not only their mental health. We believe that every person deserves to find the clarity and direction they need to understand their past, live more fully in the present, and take steps to build the future they want.

My approach is integrative and person-centred, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ( ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), and systemic models.
Hi I'm Obss. As a Clinical Psychologist and CBT therapist I understand that life can bring many challenges at once, such as relationship changes, work pressures, or uncertainty about your sense of purpose. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected from what matters most to you. In therapy, I provide a space to reconnect with yourself, explore your goals, and examine aspects of your identity including race, gender, religion, ethnicity, and class and how these shape both challenges and strengths. Reaching out for therapy can be daunting, and I aim to support you in exploring and moving towards your goals safely and sensitively.

Are you feeling exhausted, stressed and overwhelmed?

I integrate elements from ACT, Compassion Focused Therapy, mindfulness-based approaches, motivational interviewing and positive psychology where helpful.
Psychotherapy for Mind, Body & Nervous System Is your stress no longer just in your head, but showing up in your body? Chronic fatigue, physical tension, sleeping issues, anxiety, or navigating health issues can leave you feeling disconnected and exhausted. Talk therapy often misses the physiological impact of stress. I specialise in an integrated approach that bridges psychotherapy with somatic regulation. I help you understand and rebalance the dialogue between your mind and your nervous system.

I integrate different kinds of therapy- humanistic, psychodynamic, CBT, ACT etc
Change can be both unsettling and transformative. My clients often come to therapy during transitions: in careers, identities, relationships, health or life stages, seeking clarity, grounding and direction. They want to understand what's shifting, find meaning in it and reconnect with a life that feels more aligned and intentional. You may be standing at a turning point, feeling uncertain, stuck or simply ready for change. My clients reach out seeking not just relief but understanding, and a way forward that feels authentic, confident and aligned with who they are becoming.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in repeating patterns, or unsure why the same difficulties keep resurfacing despite your best efforts. When something feels persistently difficult — whether that’s anxiety, low mood, trauma or relationship strain — it can be hard to know where to begin. I work with children, young people, adults and families to make sense of what may be happening beneath the surface — not just to ease symptoms, but to deepen understanding and support meaningful, lasting change. I have extensive experience supporting those affected by marginalisation, discrimination, exclusion and identity-related challenges.
