About Kate
Kate Clare is a BACP therapist with five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and parenting strains. She also supports people managing ADHD and the ripple effects of chronic illness and caregiving pressures.
She works from the view that each person knows their own story and brings strengths into therapy.
Background and approach
Conversations are guided by the client’s goals and paced to what feels manageable. Kate aims to make the first steps straightforward and respectful so people feel heard from the start. Her approach draws on client-centred ways of working that prioritise the person's experience.
She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot patterns in thinking and behaviour that can be changed. Narrative techniques help people reframe difficult stories and find different meanings. Sessions can explore how attachment and past losses shape current relationships and patterns.
The work also addresses practical coping - for example managing panic, anger, low mood or communication breakdowns. Kate often blends short-term problem-solving with deeper reflection when that is helpful. She has professional experience supporting neurodiversity both personally and in practice.
That background informs how she listens, adapts session pace and offers clearer structure when needed. Kate encourages small steps and notices what is already working in a person’s life.
Approaches that guide online work and choice
Kate often uses client-centred therapy, which means the conversation follows the person’s priorities and feelings. This approach helps when someone needs a space to feel listened to and make sense of painful experiences.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. CBT can be useful for tackling anxiety, panic, low mood and unhelpful thinking patterns through practical steps and exercises.
Narrative therapy is another option she draws on to help people rewrite the way they tell their story. This can be helpful for issues like shame, identity, relationship problems and moving on from past hurt.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That collaboration makes it easier to try different techniques and adjust what isn’t helping.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work or family commitments and cutting out travel time.
