About Wendy
Wendy Clare is a UK counsellor with 12 years of experience supporting people through stressful and painful life moments. She works in a person-centred way and aims to help people talk things through and find practical ways to cope. Wendy describes herself as respectful, sensitive and compassionate in her approach.
Her practice commonly addresses stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps people who are facing big life changes, feeling lost about direction, or struggling with decisions.
Background and approach
Grief and bereavement are among the concerns she regularly supports people with. Wendy uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen deeply and work alongside each person. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing when people want help finding their own reasons to change.
In sessions she focuses on what matters to the individual and on small, achievable steps forward. People consult her about relationship difficulties, communication problems, self-esteem, anger and issues around commitment or separation. She also offers support for work and career stress, addictions, ADHD and midlife concerns.
Additional areas include loneliness, life purpose and first responder related pressures. Wendy works from the United Kingdom and carries the BACP credential, which denotes membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Sessions are conducted in English.

How Wendy works online
Motivational Interviewing helps people identify their own reasons for change and build practical steps. It is useful for goals like reducing unhelpful behaviours, improving motivation or planning life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. They will then agree on ways of working that match the person’s needs and pace.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around life - for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins between other commitments. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video and want a phone session instead, or who live farther from in-person services. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and motivational techniques so they work in a remote setting.
