About Clare

Clare Middleton is a counsellor who trained and practised in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and grief. Clare aims to build an open space where clients can talk without feeling judged.

Her work often begins with simple conversations to clarify what matters most to the client. She listens for practical ways to reduce everyday pressure and to ease persistent worry.

Background and approach

For relationship and family concerns she helps people identify patterns and try different ways of communicating. Clare also supports people dealing with depression, addiction and trauma-related worries. She pays attention to issues around intimacy, body image and parenting strain.

Sessions are paced to suit each person, with attention to immediate coping and longer-term change. She works with people affected by life transitions such as separation, bereavement and career change. Clare can help with burnout and compassion fatigue for those under ongoing stress.

Her additional focus includes adoption and foster care issues, attachment questions and challenges linked to caring for someone with illness. Sessions are offered in English and Clare accepts international clients. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

To begin clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability.

Approaches that guide online counselling

Clare uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to be practical and approachable. One common way she works is through structured conversations that help you spot unhelpful thinking and try new responses; this can ease anxiety, low mood and overthinking. Another strand focuses on relationship and communication skills - identifying interaction patterns and practising different ways of speaking and listening to reduce conflict and build connection.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. Clare will discuss your goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. She collaborates with you to pick methods and then adapts them as you go, checking in about progress and making adjustments together.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you read facial cues and have fuller conversations, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins, quick coping plans and people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit therapy into everyday life.
