About Michael
Michael Meaney helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self‑esteem, career challenges, relationship worries, grief and major life changes. He also offers coaching to support motivation and confidence. He speaks English and works from the United Kingdom, and has five years of professional experience as a psychotherapist alongside many years coaching and facilitating groups one to one.
He believes clients are the experts on their own stories and that personal strengths make change possible.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and conversational. Michael aims to build a calm space where people can make sense of what’s happening and try new ways of responding. In session he draws on evidence‑based therapeutic techniques and coaching skills to set clear goals and small steps.
He supports clients to identify unhelpful patterns, practise new habits, and build resilience for future challenges. Progress is tracked in ways that fit each person’s life. Michael’s approach is collaborative and straightforward.
He listens first, then helps people choose simple strategies they can use between meetings. This can include exploring career options, improving confidence, or working through grief at a manageable pace. Signing up starts with a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling according to availability.
Michael accepts international clients and works with people who want a practical, goal‑focused route through difficult times.

How Michael works online
Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist listens to what matters most, discusses options, and agrees a plan that fits the client's needs and preferences. This collaborative process means approaches can shift as goals change or progress is made.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to continue work when travel or schedules are difficult. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Many people find remote work saves commuting time, supports shorter check‑in sessions when needed, and makes it simpler to follow up on practical tasks between meetings.
