Denise Clarke is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with NCPS listed after her name. She brings five years of experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression and trauma. Denise speaks English and will work with you to understand what feels most urgent and what can change first.

She believes people know their own stories and have strengths to draw on. Sessions focus on listening and building a plan together.

Background and approach

Denise aims to be respectful and compassionate while helping clients find practical ways to cope. Her approach combines client-centred care with tools from cognitive behavioural therapy and attachment-based thinking. That means conversations stay grounded in what matters now, while also noticing patterns in relationships or mood that keep problems repeating.

Denise also uses mindfulness and trauma-focused techniques when those fit a person’s needs. These methods support emotion regulation, managing intrusive memories and improving sleep or concentration. She adapts methods to each person rather than following a fixed script.

People contact Denise for many concerns beyond mood and grief, including relationship and family difficulties, intimacy-related struggles, ADHD, compassion fatigue, chronic illness stress and body image. Work may include short-term coping strategies or longer talks about attachment and past hurts. Sessions take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.

International clients are accepted. To start, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Denise uses client‑centred therapy, which means conversations start with your experience and priorities. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps you set goals that feel useful and realistic.

She also integrates cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical experiments. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties and anger to change patterns that keep problems going.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denise will discuss different methods and agree a plan with you based on your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy proceeds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text‑based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and non‑verbal cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break or commute. Live chat or text messaging can work for brief check‑ins, reflecting between sessions or when written conversation feels easier.

These options help people access consistent care despite busy schedules or long distances, and they allow the therapist and client to choose formats that match the work they want to do together.
