About Wendy
Wendy Clare is a BACP-accredited counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and depression, and those facing difficult life changes. Many clients come wanting help to manage grief, improve relationships, or find clearer direction when decisions feel overwhelming.
Her practice centres on talking through practical options and trying out coping techniques that fit each person’s life. Sessions aim to identify what matters to the client and small steps that can be taken next. She also supports people dealing with bereavement and loss, helping them make sense of difficult emotions.
Wendy uses a person-centred style which focuses on the client’s own perspective and choices. She also draws on motivational interviewing to help when someone is unsure about change or needs extra encouragement to move forward. These approaches are used together to help people think through options and build momentum.
Clients can expect a straightforward, respectful approach that prioritises listening and practical problem solving. Conversations are kept clear and paced to suit the person attending. The therapist encourages small, achievable actions rather than large upfront commitments.
Her wider practice includes work with issues such as ADHD, addiction, anger, self-esteem, career decisions, and panic attacks. Those who want to begin are asked to follow the booking process, complete a short questionnaire and arrange a first session.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s own perspective and choices. It involves listening closely, reflecting what the client says, and helping them decide which next steps feel right. This approach can help when anxiety or life direction feels confusing and a person needs to clarify priorities.Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. It uses questions and reflections to strengthen motivation and plan small, realistic actions. This can be useful for issues like addiction, behaviour change, or when someone feels stuck.
Finding the right style is part of the work. Wendy will discuss which approach fits best with the client’s needs, goals and preferences. She will adapt sessions as understanding grows, and clients are invited to give feedback about what is or is not helpful.
Confirm the current session formats before booking as these are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family life, reduce travel time, and allow quieter check-ins or shorter follow-ups when needed. Many people find it simpler to keep a regular schedule when sessions are accessible from where they are during the day.
