About Malcolm
BACP counsellor with 17 years' experience. Malcolm Mitchell helps people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem issues and coping with life changes.
Malcolm works in clear, direct sessions. He uses client-centred conversation to hear what matters most, attachment ideas to look at relationships and patterns, and cognitive behavioural techniques to try new thinking and behaviours. Sessions focus on practical steps and on understanding how past experiences affect present choices.
He has worked across areas that include first responder issues, hospice and end-of-life counselling, multicultural concerns and personality disorder-related difficulties. Malcolm also supports people managing non-monogamous relationships and those who have self-harmed in the past.
In a first meeting he will listen to the main concerns, clarify immediate priorities and suggest a simple plan for the next few sessions. That plan may mix talking, practical exercises and small behavioural tasks to try between meetings.
People who prefer straightforward guidance and a pragmatic focus often find this style helpful. Malcolm accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. To begin, clients use the site matching process and then schedule an initial appointment.

How his approaches work in remote sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. In online conversation this approach helps identify how attachment needs affect trust and closeness, which can be useful for grief, trauma and relationship concerns.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says. In remote sessions it means the counsellor follows the client’s lead, clarifies what matters and builds from the client’s own priorities.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. When done remotely, it often includes simple exercises to try between sessions and step-by-step plans to test new ways of coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Malcolm will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences, then agree a practical plan together. That plan can draw on one method or combine elements from several approaches as needed.
The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting meetings around work or family commitments and reducing travel time. The biography does not list which formats are used, so confirm the session options before booking. Online work can still include goal setting, behavioural tasks and regular check-ins that fit into everyday life.
