Michael Purvis

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I firmly believe that counselling can be both restorative and transformative, allowing us to process difficult experiences with all the associated thoughts, feelings and learnt behaviours that result and explore our sense of self.

I specialise in working with a broad range of anxiety related conditions, such as obsessive compulsive; stress and burnout; challenges socialising or a difficulty building relationships; panic attacks; phobias; anger management; loss of purpose following retirement, redundancy or long term illness and occupational trauma. Often these are associated with low mood or depression and can be debilitating. I can also help with setting and achieving goals in many areas of your life including business, health and wellbeing, career, relationships, and work-life balance.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly make a difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most cases.

One of the main advantages is flexibility – you can connect in the way that feels most comfortable, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life.

Therapists who offer online sessions are licensed professionals, and clients may switch therapists at any time if they would prefer a different fit.
