Clare OHare, BACP, NCPS

Clare OHare is a UK credentialed integrative counsellor who brings a warm, nonjudgmental approach to her work. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials, reflecting recognised professional standards in the United Kingdom, and draws on a degree in integrative counselling to tailor flexible support for each person she sees.

Clare has worked with a diverse range of clients and has particular experience assisting people facing career difficulties, anxiety, low self esteem and confidence challenges. Her practice emphasises respect and genuine care, and she adapts treatment plans to match the unique needs and goals of every client. Whether someone is coping with relationship or family concerns, grief, trauma, or everyday stresses, Clare aims to create an atmosphere where practical progress can be made.

She recognises that taking the first step toward therapy can require courage and views that decision as important. Clare meets clients with patience and collaboration, helping them explore options and build strategies that suit their life circumstances and preferences.

Integrative approaches and online support

Clare practises integrative counselling, which blends techniques from different evidence-based approaches to suit each person's needs. This style focuses on understanding a client's life context and combining methods that help with emotional regulation, self-esteem, anxiety, and navigating major life changes. It is adaptable for people facing career challenges, relationship concerns, grief, or stress.

She also offers coaching-informed work that concentrates on goal setting, practical steps, and building skills to manage everyday difficulties. Coaching techniques can complement counselling by turning insights into concrete action plans for areas like work, parenting, or sleep routines.

Finding the best therapeutic approach is an ongoing, collaborative process. Clare works with clients to identify what feels most useful, adjusting techniques and pacing to match the client's goals, preferences, and progress. Clients are involved in choosing strategies and evaluating what helps.

Online sessions - via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options provide flexibility in scheduling, allow contact from various locations within the United Kingdom, and support different communication styles so clients can pick the format that suits them best.
