About Sinead

Sinead Clarke-Adams works with adults who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and difficult life changes. She aims to make talking about painful topics feel straightforward. Her approach is warm and respectful, and she focuses on what each person needs in the moment.

Sinead is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and draws mainly on a person-centred way of working.

Background and approach

She matches the method to the issue, bringing in other approaches when they will help. In sessions she helps people deal with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and problems with self-esteem. She also supports people with relationship and intimacy-related issues, family concerns and parenting strain.

Practical coping strategies and clearer ways to communicate are common parts of her work. Sinead has worked with people affected by domestic violence, substance and alcohol difficulties, eating and food-related issues, and those who have experienced psychosis. She also has personal lived experience related to eating disorders and autism, which informs her sensitivity to those topics.

Her style is collaborative and tailored. Conversations and plans are adjusted to each person's goals. The aim is to help people feel a bit steadier and better able to take the next steps in their life.

How Sinead uses therapeutic approaches online

Sinead commonly uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. This method helps when someone needs a steady, empathic space to talk things through and to work out what matters to them.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. CBT offers practical steps and exercises to manage anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness-based strategies are used to help people notice and respond to stress with more calm and clarity, often with short, simple practices that suit everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Plans and techniques are reviewed together so the approach can change as needs shift.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits shorter check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family commitments and day-to-day life.
