Michelle Thornton

I work at this beautiful Clinic between the hours of 10am-3pm on Friday and Saturday. Upon request I can also do sessions on a Monday. 

My engaging and down to earth personality allows you to feel comfortable and nurtured in our sessions. My therapy framework is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and also Solution Focused Therapy. This type of therapy allows clients to get results quite quickly. Whether you wish to work on anxiety management or managing depression symptoms, the CBT piece allows you to get to the core of what is going on for you and offers valuable tools to use in between sessions. 

I enjoy working with clients to help them feel better/ make better and improve lifestyle choices/ manage stress to prevent burnout/ and help you become the best version of you. 

I look forward to working with you on your counselling journey. I offer a free 20 minute initial phone consultation to find out more about you and how I can best support you. 

My practice is person centred and I believe each client is unique and help find the best tools to work with you on your therapy path. I integrate Positive Psychology tools into our work together. 

During our work together we will be working on therapy goals that you have come up with and we will have a direction to our work referring back to these goals/intentions. 

During the first session, we will get to know each other. I will ask you to complete a brief new client intake form and I can assist you if you have any questions. 

We will then craft some therapy goals so we know the direction our work will take together. 

Welcome! I congratulate you on taking this journey of self-discovery. I have a compassionate and down to earth approach to my counselling style which makes you feel at ease in the counselling room. I draw upon Positive Psychology and tap into your strengths. My therapeutic framework is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and also Solution Focused Therapy. 

I have a humanistic approach and tap into different Psychology frameworks when making unique treatment plans for my clients. My work with my clients is engaging, uplifting and inspiring.

I specialise working with clients living with anxiety and depression. I also work with clients wishing to improve their confidence and how they show up in the world. I enjoy working with Highly Sensitive People and Empaths. I offer much experience and a spiritual background in my work.

I also offer nature bathing therapy where we walk in nature and have our sessions outside. In addition, I offer an office space where clients can visit me at The Clinic in Borde Hill.

The first session is getting to know you. We go over the new client intake form together and find out some therapy goals  you wish to work on during our work together.
