Michael Burrows

Michael has specialised in treating anxiety conditions for the last 13 years. He helps people break free from the restrictions anxiety places on their lives, so they can get back to the work, relationships and experiences that matter to them. Anxiety can make a person avoid making friends, worry constantly about their health, dread a flight, fear leaving the house, or brace for the next panic attack. Michael has worked with all of these and more. His focus is on helping people move from simply coping with anxiety to living without being controlled by it. Michael helps people who are struggling with: Social anxiety Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) Health anxiety Panic attacks and panic disorder Agoraphobia Specific phobias, including fear of flying Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) Other anxiety-related difficulties His Approach Michael's work is practical, structured and focused on results. He uses evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT and EMDR to help clients understand what keeps their anxiety going and learn skills to change it. He explains what is happening and why, so clients can forge ahead confidently. He is also realistic about how hard this work can feel. Facing fears takes courage, so Michael moves at a pace that feels challenging but manageable. He aims to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where clients feel understood and empowered rather than pushed.
