About Mika
Mika Felstead is a counsellor who aims to make the first steps easier for people feeling overwhelmed. She offers a calm, non-judgemental presence and listens to what matters to each person.

Background and approach
She responds to messages promptly, usually within 24 hours on weekdays, and replies to weekend messages on Monday. Mika takes a pluralistic approach, meaning sessions are shaped around what the client wants to bring. She and the client agree on ways of working, and move at a pace that feels manageable.
This lets people address issues such as grief, family conflict, relationship troubles, addiction, and stress in a way that suits them. She also offers mindfulness techniques when helpful, to support calm in stressful moments. Mika is flexible about scheduling so sessions can fit around work and family commitments.
She works online through voice, video, chat and messaging formats to make therapy accessible across the United Kingdom. Mika helps people with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, parenting strains, trauma and intimacy-related issues. Her style aims to be respectful, sensitive and compassionate while focusing on practical steps forward.

Online support
Approaches that guide online work and practical support
Existential Therapy helps people consider meaning, choice and personal values when life feels uncertain. It can be useful for those coping with big life changes, feelings of emptiness or questions about direction.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgement. This approach helps build trust and supports people who need a steady, understanding space to talk through family conflict, grief or relationship concerns.
Mika will work collaboratively to find the best fit for each person. She discusses goals and preferences and adapts methods as the relationship develops, so the approach changes if different tools are needed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is suited to a fuller conversation, phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can work for short check-ins or when a written format feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work and family life and to keep progress moving even when routines are busy.
