Wendy Clare

Wendy Clare is a counsellor with 12 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Wendy focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety and depression by listening and working out practical coping techniques together.

She often supports people facing big life changes and difficult decisions. Wendy works collaboratively to clarify what matters and to plan small steps that can make a real difference. She also provides support for bereavement, grief and loss, helping people find ways to carry on after painful events.

Wendy uses a person-centred style that places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. This means she follows each person's pace and priorities rather than imposing a set solution. She also uses motivational interviewing to help people explore their reasons for change and to build their own commitment to new directions.

Her approach is practical and down to earth. Conversations focus on what is troubling someone now and what might be helpful next. Sessions include talking things through, trying out coping strategies and reviewing what does and does not work.

People come for many reasons including relationship strain, career questions, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, ADHD and feelings of isolation. Wendy aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion while supporting them through the first steps and beyond.

How her approaches work online and in conversation

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely to each person's experience and following their pace. This approach helps when someone feels overwhelmed, uncertain or needs space to work out decisions. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to explore reasons for change and build commitment; it can help with habits, addictions or moving through difficult life decisions.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Wendy will talk with the person about their goals and preferences, then try ways of working that fit those needs. This happens together, with adjustments as progress is made and new information arises.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or longer check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer not to travel or who need to balance work and family commitments. Registered or accredited professionals often use different formats, so check the available options when you schedule.
