About Michael Ross
Across his practice Michael has supported hundreds of clients, including many who work in creative industries or are studying at BA and MA levels in creative fields. He has particular experience supporting people dealing with substance dependence - including alcohol, cocaine, and prescription medication - as well as compulsive behaviours such as gambling, problematic sexual behaviour, and excessive shopping. He also works with anxiety, depression, trauma and post-traumatic stress, panic, intrusive or suicidal thoughts, and issues with self-esteem and mood.
Michael commonly supports neurodivergent clients and those navigating attachment difficulties, dissociation, or feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame. He also offers help with relationship and communication problems, control issues, codependency, and challenges around life purpose and isolation. His work addresses both process addictions - including porn, exercise, and gambling - and drug and alcohol addiction.
In addition to one-to-one therapy Michael has experience supporting higher education learners through Disabled Students Allowance (DSA) processes and can provide DSA application assistance or private mentoring while clients wait for assessments or when they are not eligible for statutory support.

Could Remote Therapy Fit Your Needs?
Many people wonder whether remote therapy can make a meaningful difference. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person work when delivered by trained professionals.One key benefit is convenience. People can connect in the way that suits them best - by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy around work, study, and family commitments. That flexibility often helps people sustain regular sessions and make steady progress.
Therapists offering online work are licensed professionals who use established therapeutic approaches adapted for remote delivery. Individuals can also change therapists if they need a different fit, making it possible to find a working relationship that feels right.
