About Clare
She has worked with young adults, middle-aged adults, and older adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. That breadth of experience informs how she tailors each session to a person’s current situation and goals. Clare aims to keep conversations straightforward and focused on what matters most to the client.
Her background includes direct counseling in medical and psychiatric environments. That work sharpened her ability to support people facing chronic illness, caregiving stress, and end-of-life concerns. She also addresses relationship strains, career transitions, and substance use issues with a practical orientation.
Clare uses Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered methods. She also draws on motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to help people set achievable steps and build momentum. Sessions emphasize skills people can try between meetings.
She describes counseling as a collaborative process. Clients can expect clear goals, options to try, and regular check-ins on progress. Clare works from Ohio and conducts sessions in English.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Clare incorporates Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the effects of traumatic events, helping people process upsetting memories and learn coping strategies. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which aims to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop new coping skills for anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clare will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on how someone responds and what feels most useful.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It can also help people continue work during health challenges or caregiving demands. Licensed professionals can adapt Trauma-Focused and cognitive behavioral tools to remote sessions while keeping the focus on practical steps and goals.
