Therapist Short Bio
Welcome to Mia M Counselling and Therapy! I am here for you. Don't be alone with your challenges. Help is available at your own home and at a time that suits you best. I live in the UK but I offer my online services globally.
Therapist Long Bio
I am a dedicated Counsellor, Psychotherapist, Cognitive behaviour therapist and Hypnotherapist. I am an accredited member of the National Counselling Society (MNCS Accred.), a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), an accredited member of the National Hypnotherapy Society (MHS Accred.), UK and I have professional insurance. I hold a PhD in Behavioural Sciences -Education major (non-medical doctorate).
ABOUT MY SERVICES:
I run my private practice "Mia M Counselling and Therapy". I provide confidential and effective services in Counselling, Integrative Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT), Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH), and CBT-based mentoring/coaching; on Skype, Zoom, Duo, WhatsApp and by phone. Online therapy is a very flexible option as you can get services in your own home or in a location where you have access to a computer or mobile phone.
Promptly getting help which can be scheduled around other commitments is important when you go through life challenges. As a therapist, I recognise and take this seriously which is why I am offering online sessions at short notice including late evenings.
Sometimes it may just need a couple of sessions to get you back on track and in other situations, of course, more time may need to be devoted as the best way forward.
ABOUT MY APPROACHES:
I use different psychological approaches and their combinations to ensure the best possible results. For example, REBT -therapy is an effective cognitive behavioural therapy approach that can be used alone or combined with other approaches. I teach relaxation and hypnotherapy techniques to combat stress, helping you to flourish in your life and career.
I also offer short-term therapy and hypnotherapy options for quitting smoking and other issues suitable for a short-term approach.
EFFECTIVE PROCESS AND SUPPORT BETWEEN SESSIONS:
I offer my clients free resources to read and exercises they can do between sessions to gain skills for well-being and permanent change. I am eager to educate my clients about the approaches I use to help them gain transferrable skills and flourish in their lives. The CBT-REBT approach is evidence-based and aims for the client to gain skills making them their own therapist.
ABOUT MY PERSONAL BACKGROUND:
Besides professional qualifications, I have also my own personal experiences of mental health issues in the past. I had some traumatic experiences in my childhood and have experienced an anxiety disorder and depression. This has helped me better understand clients’ experiences. I have been given much positive feedback on this from my clients. I have also much work experience outside the therapy room including academia and teacher education.
I am experienced in working with people from different cultural backgrounds.
SUPERVISION AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT:
I enjoy my work and I am eager to further study and develop my skills to help my clients better. I have regular supervision as mandated by NCS, HS and BACP and I attend various professional training to keep my knowledge and skills up to date and in constant development.
RESULTS AND CLIENT REVIEWS:
Results have been excellent (check also the client testimonials). I am described by clients as skilled, warm, approachable and sincere as well as able to challenge clients successfully to work through various challenges.
