About Mika
Mika Felstead is a counsellor who focuses on helping people through everyday worries and major life changes. She works with issues such as stress, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship concerns and parenting strain. Mika aims to listen without judgment and to treat each person with sensitivity and respect.
Mika uses a pluralistic approach, which means sessions are shaped around what the client wants to work on. She and the client choose therapeutic methods together, so each meeting suits the person’s pace and goals. Mindfulness techniques are offered when they could help reduce stress and manage difficult moments.
Mika is a member of the NCPS, which she follows in her professional practice. She keeps her skills current through continuing professional development and regular supervision. This background supports clear boundaries and a reflective practice style.
She is flexible about scheduling and can adapt session times to fit a client’s life, so people do not have to keep the same appointment each week. Messages are usually answered within 24 hours on weekdays, with weekend messages replied to on Monday.
Mika has five years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people with a wide range of concerns including coping with natural or human-caused disaster, addiction, trauma, and issues around self-esteem and identity. Choosing to start therapy can feel hard, and she acknowledges the courage it takes to begin.
How Mika’s approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on seeing the person’s experience from their point of view and responding with empathy and respect. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, non-judgemental space to talk through personal worries or relationship concerns.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple exercises to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without getting swept up in them. It can be useful for managing anxiety, stress and overwhelming emotions in everyday life.
Finding the right approach is something the therapist and client work out together. Mika uses a pluralistic style so she will listen to your needs, try different ways of working, and adapt the plan as your goals change. The choice of methods is collaborative and reviewed over time.
For practicalities, please confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a client. It also lets people use approaches like mindfulness exercises between sessions to build skills in real life. Registered or accredited professionals can help tailor sessions so they slot into everyday routines without adding extra burden.
