About Clare

Clare Middleton is a counsellor who trained in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and relationship difficulties. Clare aims to make the room calm and straightforward so people can speak openly about what’s worrying them.

She helps clients who are dealing with family conflict, parenting strain and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Clare also supports people coping with addiction, eating or sleeping problems, and career or life changes.

Background and approach

She is experienced in concerns related to attachment, abandonment and blended family dynamics. Clare offers a warm, non-judgemental space where emotions and practical worries can be talked through. She focuses on clear, manageable steps rather than medical or technical language.

Her approach is collaborative - she works with each person to find what feels useful for them. Clare is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She conducts sessions in English and accepts clients from the United Kingdom and internationally.

Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and can then schedule according to the therapist’s availability. Clare uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Clare uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One approach helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours so they can better manage anxiety and low mood. Another approach centres on understanding relationships and attachment patterns, helping people improve communication and feel more supported in close connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clare will explore your needs, goals and preferences with you and suggest ways of working that fit. Together you can try different techniques and agree what to keep or adjust as therapy progresses, keeping the process collaborative and adaptable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller discussion is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a simpler option for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick reflections, note-taking or more frequent brief contact between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel without losing continuity of care.
