As a psychotherapist specialising in narcissistic abuse I understand the trauma and emotional pain involved. I work with clients who have experienced narcissistic abuse from parents, wife's, husbands, colleagues and friends the list is endless. Wherever you are in life I believe that having a safe space to be heard, understood and believed is fundamental in helping you on your healing journey. As a fully certified member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) I am here to help you with whatever you are facing.

I am especially interested in the effects of narcissistic abuse on the child having grown up within a narcissistic family or having been married to or living with a narcissist. I am also very interested in inner child work where there has been childhood trauma.

CLIENT REVIEWS
I have been a client of Anchor of Hope Counselling since January 2018.
Michelle's compassionate and understanding nature has allowed me to find myself. Throughout my counselling journey she has offered me the safe and confidential space I have needed to reflect on my past and to explore the feelings that I never had the strength to venture near by myself.
I am beyond thankful for the clarity that my counselling journey has brought to my life, and I credit Michelle for this.
