Michelle Mclean

I offer confidential face-to-face and online psychotherapy from my welcoming rooms in Bethnal Green, East London.

I aim to help you understand your emotions and behaviours using a psychodynamic approach. Together, we can explore anything that may be troubling you.

People come to see me for many different reasons - it might be anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship or family issues, addictive or compulsive behaviour, loneliness, or low self-esteem. Sometimes, people need to make sense of a particular event or crisis, such as loss or bereavement, but often, what brings people to therapy is feeling stuck in life or relationships. Therapy is a place to explore how you are feeling and relating. It can be challenging to make sense of our feelings alone. I am here to support you through whatever challenges you may be facing. Together, we can work towards change.

I understand that seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, and finding a therapist who feels the right fit is important. My priority is creating a warm, nonjudgmental, and confidential space where you can freely express what’s on your mind.

If you would like to contact me, please send me an email or call me and leave me a message, and I will respond to you promptly. We can then arrange a first session. During the first session/s, you will get a feel for how I work, and you can ask any questions about therapy. You will have time to fully explain what has brought you to therapy and what you hope for. The session will last for the usual 50 minutes. You can then decide if you would like to proceed with therapy, and if you do, I will explain my therapeutic framework and the Ethical Code I abide by.

Sessions take place once weekly and at a regular time, and I offer both once-weekly open-ended and fixed-term therapy. Together, we can decide which feels right for you.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to arrange a first meeting.
