She lists LGBT among her areas of focus and offers an approach that centres the individual. Mika is a member of the NCPS, which she follows for professional standards. She has five years of experience and keeps up with continuing professional development and regular supervision.
Background and approach
Her practice is pluralistic, so sessions are shaped around what the client brings and what they want to work on. In practical terms she uses client-centred conversation alongside mindfulness when helpful. That can mean simple grounding or breathing exercises to reduce immediate stress.
She also draws on solution-focused ideas to identify small, achievable steps clients can try between sessions. Sessions move at the client’s pace. Mika emphasises respect, sensitivity and a non-judgemental attitude.
She aims to listen and to help people decide the best way forward for themselves. Mika is flexible about scheduling to fit changing routines. She aims to reply to messages within 24 hours on weekdays and responds to weekend messages on Monday.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability.

How approaches shape online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and opinions. The therapist listens closely and reflects back what matters most to the client, helping them make choices that feel right. This approach suits people who want to be heard and to lead the direction of sessions.Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress in the moment. It can help with anxiety, sleep problems and staying calmer during difficult days by teaching small, repeatable skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mika collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts as things change and checks in about what is working and what could shift.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life. It can reduce travel time, allow quicker check-ins between commitments and make scheduling more flexible. If you are unsure which session formats are available, confirm the current options before booking so you know what will work best for your routine.
