About Clare

Clare Herbert is a counsellor with seven years of practice in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or low self-esteem. Clare also supports people coping with trauma, abuse and grief.

She uses clear, straightforward language and a calm approach in sessions. Clare aims to build an open, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters most to them. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on practical steps to manage difficult feelings.

Background and approach

She listens closely and works at the client’s pace, helping people find ways to feel steadier day to day. Sessions can include talking through painful memories, learning tools to reduce anxious thoughts, and building simple routines to improve motivation and mood. Clare encourages realistic goals and small steps that fit into ordinary life.

She checks in regularly so plans can be changed if something is not working. Clare works in plain language and avoids jargon so clients can understand and use what they learn. Many people find that having someone to reflect with helps them make sense of hard experiences.

Clare reminds clients that beginning therapy is itself a meaningful step toward feeling better. Her background in the United Kingdom and seven years of experience inform a warm, steady style. She offers help in English and accepts international clients, meeting online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Clare lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Therapeutic techniques and online care that fit everyday life

Clare draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional processing. One common approach she uses helps people learn how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together so they can spot patterns and try small changes to feel less anxious or low in mood. Another approach involves working gently with painful memories and difficult emotions to reduce their hold and help people regain calm and routine.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clare treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss different methods with clients. Together they look at the person’s goals, what feels achievable and which ways of working suit their pace and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people meet face to face without travel. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when camera use is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These choices make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
