“I’ve been a client of Michaela’s since my early twenties. She’s always been professional and reliable – and I particularly enjoy her holistic, relaxed approach. Now in my early thirties, there is no doubt that working with her has enabled me to articulate what I want from my life and make that happen.”
I.B
Therapy Services in Marylebone with Michaela McCarthy
Michaela is an integrative practitioner, meaning she has combined many therapeutic theories and has developed her own style of working as a therapist. Above all, she believes that the most important part of therapy is the relationship between client and therapist. She has had years of experience supporting clients to explore issues through open and transparent communication. This relational process enables developmental growth and change.
Initially, Michaela will meet clients for an assessment. If both agree to work together, she will offer open-ended therapy. Michaela offers short- and long-term approaches to clients but specialises in longer-term therapy. She is passionate about supporting clients on their journey to gain greater insight into their inner world to relate to their outer world.
Michaela is very experienced in working with couples, supporting them to engage better with communication and intimacy. She values the importance of the couple’s sexuality and creates a safe place for both partners to develop their trust in each other.
Francesca Brenner is the PA to Michaela McCarthy. She brings a wealth of medical administrative experience gained over 12 years both in the private sector and in GP services.
