My Approach

I believe in a whole-person approach to psychotherapy that values the mind, body, feelings, soul and spirit. I work in the present moment, exploring your experiences as they emerge in the room between us. Psychotherapy with me can help you reconnect with a deeper understanding of who you are – your authentic self. I have a broad frame of reference which is brought together through a core psycho-dynamic model and I draw inspiration from all aspects of life. Take the first step towards healing and personal growth by contacting me. Based at Acklam Hall in Middlesbrough, I offer in-person and on-line sessions and work across a broad range of issues.

About Me

Hello - I'm Michael Blades, an Integrative, Relational Psychotherapist and full member of the UCKP. I have been practicing as a therapist since 2017. After undertaking further academic research, I developed a unique Transpersonal (psycho-spiritual) perspective that I also bring to my practice . This has been particularly helpful for my work with clients interested in deeper questions of identity, meaning, and spirituality — creating space for the whole of the human experience. I've also worked within the NHS, charitable and educational sectors providing counselling and psychotherapy. I currently work with various private clients from all walks of life, and part of my service also includes supporting trainee psychotherapists and counsellors. I often see motivated and courageous clients; who realise they are not just the stories they have come to believe about themselves - and, in time, reconnect with a more profound sense of who they are and have meaning in their lives.
