About Clare
Clare Bridgman is a counsellor who draws on four years of experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression and addiction. She holds an NCPS credential and works from a practical, integrative stance. Clare aims to make sessions straightforward and approachable for someone feeling overwhelmed.
She offers a calm space to talk through low self-esteem, relationship strain, and the fallout from separation or infidelity. Clare also helps with issues around body image, abandonment and attachment worries.
Background and approach
Conversations stay focused on what a person wants to change and how to take manageable steps forward. Clare uses a mix of evidence-based techniques tailored to each person. That means she selects methods that fit individual needs instead of a single rigid model.
Sessions can include short-term tools for coping and longer conversations about life purpose and midlife transition. People seeking help for drug or alcohol addiction, feelings of emptiness, guilt or shame will find a non-judgemental approach. Clare also supports those dealing with blended family difficulties, communication problems and forgiveness work.
The aim is to build clarity and small, realistic changes. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Clare asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule sessions according to her availability.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of working together. Clare will discuss different ways of working and tailor methods to goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps people try out techniques and settle on what feels most useful over time.
Online therapy here offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Video is good for a full conversation when visual contact matters. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit quick updates, reflections between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and busy days while keeping therapy consistent.
