About Michaela
Michaela Grecu is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She holds NCPS and has postgraduate diplomas in hypnotherapy and in psychotherapy and counselling. She aims to work in a collaborative and respectful way with people who want practical help for life stresses and emotional difficulties.
Her style is warm and non-judgemental. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and move at a pace they find comfortable.
Background and approach
Michaela uses a mix of approaches so she can tailor sessions to each person's needs rather than relying on a single technique. In practice she combines client-centred listening with cognitive strategies and therapeutic conversation. She may use hypnotherapy alongside mindfulness exercises or cognitive behavioural techniques when these fit the person's goals.
The aim is to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding to them. Michaela works with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem, addiction and grief. She also supports people facing career challenges, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain and the emotional fallout of separation and loss.
Her sessions often include exploring thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and trying small practical steps between meetings. Over time the focus can shift from coping to building a more satisfying routine and clearer choices. Conversations are practical, humane and focused on what the client wants to change.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help people access different ways of thinking about a problem. It can support issues like stress, sleep problems, cravings and certain patterns of behaviour by encouraging calmer responses and new perspectives.Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding without judgement. The counsellor follows the person’s lead and helps them make sense of their feelings, which suits people who need time to explore personal values and relationships.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps people recognise unhelpful thinking patterns and try small practical experiments to see if new approaches help with anxiety, low mood or compulsive behaviours.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try different ways of working together. Decisions are made collaboratively so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when convenient. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can suit people who prefer writing between meetings or want brief, regular support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and everyday life.
