Michael Nkeng is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, anger and other concerns. He meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce distress. Michael aims to support clients as they make changes and build on their strengths.

He brings eight years of professional experience and works from a belief that each person is the expert on their own life. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused, with the client’s priorities shaping the work. Michael uses clear, straightforward language and helps people try small, doable changes between meetings.

His approach combines methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. That means practical thinking tools, attention to emotional patterns in relationships, and simple mindfulness practices to manage stress and impulsive reactions. These tools are used as suited to each person’s goals.

Michael draws on experience helping people with addictions, sleep and eating struggles, attention difficulties and obsessive behaviours, as well as career stress and life transitions. He also supports people working on communication problems, control issues and building self-love.

People can expect a straightforward process that identifies problems, sets clear goals and tracks progress. He encourages honest feedback and adapts the plan as needs change. To begin, people follow the site’s Start Therapy flow and schedule a first session.

How Michael uses CBT, EFT and Mindfulness online

Michael often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT gives simple tools for reducing worry, panic and low mood by testing thoughts and trying different responses.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used to look at how emotions shape close interactions and personal reactions. This approach helps people see repeating emotional patterns and practise new ways of responding that feel safer and more connected.

Mindfulness Therapy adds short attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices are most useful for stress, anger management and reducing compulsive behaviours.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, and then agree a plan together. The approach can change as progress is made or priorities shift.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, allow shorter focussed check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, homework and check-ins to suit an online setting.
