Clare Rose , BACP

Clare Rose is a counsellor who focuses on helping women navigate worry, life changes and relationship strain. She works in plain language and aims to make sessions feel manageable for someone reading on a phone. Clare uses a calm, non-judgemental style and invites people to talk through what matters most to them.

She draws on approaches that look at attachment and past experiences to understand current patterns. Clare also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and solution-focused steps to try practical changes between sessions. This combination helps people tackle issues such as anxiety, low mood, grief and problems with intimacy.

Clare has five years' experience working with adults in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation. Her background includes supporting people facing relationship difficulties, parenting strain, career stress and the emotional effects of trauma or loss. She also offers coaching-style work for clients wanting clearer goals.

Sessions can cover a wide range of concerns including self-esteem, communication problems, commitment worries, fertility-related stress and blended family challenges. Clare aims to balance space for listening with practical ideas to try at home. She helps people spot patterns, set small goals and build coping skills.

Beginning therapy with Clare involves a straightforward conversation about what you hope to change. She encourages a collaborative plan so sessions match the client’s pace and aims.

Approaches that work online and in conversation

Clare uses attachment-based work to help people understand how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at how trust, closeness and separation affect reactions in adult relationships and can help with intimacy worries and commitment concerns.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural changes. CBT-style techniques can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress by breaking issues into manageable steps.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Clare will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She aims to be collaborative, adapting techniques as conversations and goals evolve.

Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging to provide practical flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation; phone calls can suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or when someone wants written reflections to refer back to. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
