Klara Sharples helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain and trauma. She also supports those dealing with self-esteem, parenting pressures, career questions and major life changes. Klara works with LGBT concerns and a wide range of family-related issues such as adoption, blended family dynamics and communication problems.

Klara practises in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation, which she uses alongside a degree in psychology. She uses a mix of direct and non-direct approaches depending on what each person prefers.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside space to talk things through. In therapy she combines client-centred listening with techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness. She also uses solution-focused tools to set concrete goals and trauma-focused approaches when past harm is part of the story.

The aim is to help people understand their reactions and build useful coping skills. Typical work includes learning coping strategies, moving through bereavement and processing painful memories. She offers psychoeducation so people can make sense of their feelings and try new ways of responding.

Conversations are gentle but purposeful, with time for reflection and practical change. Klara describes herself as a supportive companion on the therapy journey. She emphasises respect and empathy and aims to help people feel stronger and more able to manage everyday life.

Getting started involves a short matching process and then scheduling sessions in the way that suits the individual.

How Klara’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflecting feelings and building a trusting space to talk about grief, anxiety or life change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches practical steps for coping and managing difficult feelings. It is useful for anxiety, stress and everyday problems. Mindfulness Therapy encourages noticing the present moment and developing simple practices to reduce rumination and increase calm; it can help with stress, self-esteem and adjustment to illness.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be explored together. Klara works collaboratively to choose which methods suit the person's goals, needs and preferences. She may combine listening with practical exercises and check in regularly to see what is working and what to try next.

Online therapy offers flexibility across several formats. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation while phone sessions suit people who prefer not to use video or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins, written reflection or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and everyday life.
