From Maidenhead, a psychic reading or a coaching session with me is simplest on Zoom. Meeting in person is easy too: fast GWR trains reach Paddington quickly and the Elizabeth line runs on through central London, and the meeting place is sent when you book.
Below Boulter's Lock on a summer evening, the Thames at Maidenhead is all rowers, dog walkers and people who have just stepped off a train from Paddington, loosening their ties as they go. Brunel's long, flat brick arches carry the railway over the water a little downstream. It is a lovely place to live, and a demanding one: plenty of the people in these streets and villages run businesses, carry big jobs or juggle both with family. I'm Michelle Virtue, a London-based intuitive coach and psychic, and this page is for anyone in Maidenhead considering working with me.
I don't have a venue in Maidenhead and I don't run sessions there, so everything below is either a video call or a trip into town.
Intuitive coaching for owners facing hard decisions
Business owners around Maidenhead tend to be good at decisions, which is partly why the hard ones weigh so much. Whether to sell, whether to take on a partner, whether to move the family firm in a new direction or let it stay as it is. Often the spreadsheet says one thing and something quieter inside says another. Sitting in a Bray kitchen or a Cookham study at the end of the day, it can be hard to know which to trust.
My one-to-one intuitive coaching works with that quieter voice. Over a series of Zoom sessions we look at:
- what you already sense about the decision in front of you, before anyone else's opinion is added;
- the habits and fears that tend to drown that instinct out, often learned long before the business existed;
- a practical next step you can take in the coming week, so the work shows up in real life.
My working life before this was spent leading teams in banking and then social care. I know pressure, accountability and the loneliness of being the person who signs things off. I particularly love working with women founders and owners, though coaching is open to anyone. Everyone begins with the free Intuitive Clarity Consultation. We spend twenty minutes on Zoom getting a sense of your situation and what you're hoping for, and I'm clear that it's a conversation, with no reading involved.
Some owners want something more sustained. My Butterfly Transformation Packages are my most hands-on mentoring, where coaching sits alongside energy work and a strategy built for your particular business and life. On the first rung you'll find The Larva Foundation, while the most complete option is The Butterfly Flight VIP Experience. Before any package starts, we hold a Clarity Session, which lets me understand your goals properly rather than handing you a programme off the shelf.
Cookham, Stanley Spencer and the sacred in ordinary places
Stanley Spencer painted Cookham again and again, setting angels and resurrections among its churchyard, its lanes and its riverbank. To him, the village was a place where the everyday and the spiritual overlapped. I think that's a useful idea for anyone curious about intuition. Most insight doesn't arrive in a flash of light. It arrives on the walk across Cookham Moor, in a dream, or in the nudge that makes you call someone you haven't spoken to in months.
A reading with me works in a similar spirit. I tune into your energy and, where it helps, use oracle cards, then explain what I'm getting in straightforward terms. People bring all kinds of questions: a relationship pattern that keeps repeating, a career crossroads, a sense of being stuck after a change in circumstances. The aim is clarity, reassurance and steps you can act on.
Michelle is a wonderful and powerful teacher. She creates an encouraging and beautiful environment to follow your intuition and lean into this path.

Reiki in London for busy minds
For many people here, the trouble isn't a single question. It's a body and mind that never quite switch off, between the commute, the inbox and the school run. As a certified Reiki Master Practitioner, I offer Reiki and energy healing for anyone who wants to feel calmer and more balanced. I give healing sessions only in London, in the same room, and not over Zoom, and the free consultation is the place to ask about them.
Reiki is a gentle, complementary practice. It is never a replacement for medical care, and if you have a health condition please keep working with your GP or specialist. Many people simply find it helps them rest more deeply and come back to themselves. After a long week of decisions, an hour where nothing is asked of you can be more restorative than you expect, and a riverside walk home from Maidenhead station afterwards is a gentle way to let it settle.
Is a London reading worth the trip from Maidenhead?
Often it is, because Maidenhead is one of the better-connected towns in Berkshire for coming into London. The quickest GWR services reach Paddington in about 20 to 25 minutes; the Elizabeth line stops more often but carries on through central London without a change, which can save a connection at the other end. If you live on the Buckinghamshire side of the river, Taplow station is on the Elizabeth line too.
For a face-to-face session, my London reading sessions are by appointment. From Maidenhead it's easy to combine a session with a day already planned in town, perhaps a client meeting or lunch with a friend, which makes the trip feel less like a special effort. Trains do get delayed, and I build a little flexibility into my day for that, so don't worry if you're running behind. Just let me know.
I was late getting to my appointment yet she gave me time to get to her and did not rush through the reading.

Zoom sessions and keeping things private
Bray and Taplow are small places where people tend to know one another, and for some that makes privacy feel important. Booking a Zoom session means nobody notices you heading anywhere, and what we talk about stays between us.
For coaching in particular, Zoom is usually the better choice. It saves you the trip and lets you fit a session into the day around clients or children. My online readings and coaching sessions work just as well as meeting face to face. A 30-minute Zoom reading is £75 and an hour is £135, and you can reschedule from your booking confirmation if your week changes.
Everything I offer is guidance and reflection. It is not a substitute for medical, psychological, legal or financial advice, and clients must be 18 or over. For nearby towns, including Windsor and Reading, my Berkshire page brings them together.
