Clare Rose, BACP

Clare Rose is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and midlife questions. She works in a non-judgemental way and listens with empathy. Clare encourages clients to notice what matters to them and to take practical steps towards change.

Clare uses plain talk and steady support to make difficult subjects easier to face. She helps people work through grief, trauma and loss, and talks with them about self-esteem, intimacy and parenting concerns. Clare also supports those managing anger, career crossroads and the fallout from separation or divorce.

Her approach combines gentle, client-centred listening with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural methods and solution-focused work. Clare pays attention to how early attachment patterns influence current relationships, and she brings trauma-focused strategies when past harm is part of the picture.

Clare holds BACP as a listed credential. She has five years of experience working as a counsellor in the UK context. This background informs sessions that balance emotional exploration with clear steps clients can try between meetings.

People who choose Clare often want straightforward help working through life changes and relationship difficulties. To begin, she asks about your immediate concerns and goals so sessions stay focused on what you want to change.

How Clare blends approaches for online work

Clare uses client-centred counselling to prioritise the person's own priorities and experience. That means she aims to listen closely, reflect what she hears and help people find their own solutions rather than imposing answers. This approach suits people who want a compassionate space to make sense of feelings.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. CBT offers practical exercises and steps to try between sessions, and it is often used for anxiety, depression and coping with stressful life changes. Clare pays attention to attachment patterns too, helping people notice how early relationship experiences affect current interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clare will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then agree a way of working together. That collaborative decision means methods can change as therapy progresses to meet what the client finds helpful.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm which formats Clare currently offers before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use exercises and worksheets between sessions to support progress.
