Sinead Clarke-Adams offers approachable support for people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and difficult life changes. She introduces herself plainly and listens first. Her style is warm and respectful and she aims to help people feel understood and find practical ways forward.

Sinead is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated BACP. She has three years of professional experience working with a range of concerns. Her focus includes trauma and abuse, grief and loss, self-esteem, and the emotional effects of difficult relationships.

Background and approach

Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs. Sinead works from a person-centred perspective and brings in other approaches when they will help. Conversations are tailored so people can speak at their own pace and try methods that match their goals.

She also supports people dealing with addiction and eating and food-related issues, as well as those coping with attachment and abandonment issues. Practical tools and short exercises may be used alongside reflective conversation to help manage symptoms and build new patterns. Sinead has experience supporting people who have survived domestic violence and those affected by narcissistic behaviour.

She also draws on personal experience to inform her understanding of autism and eating disorders. Her aim is to empower people to make changes that improve everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Sinead commonly works from a person-centred approach that focuses on listening, empathy and collaboration. This approach helps people feel heard and respected while they make sense of difficult feelings and decisions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. CBT includes practical exercises and experiments that can reduce anxiety or low mood and help with specific problems like unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Sinead will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit your needs. You and she make decisions together about which methods to try and how quickly to adapt them.

Online sessions via video or phone allow work to fit around routines and travel constraints. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins, managing day-to-day coping, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to access support from home or during a break, and they give flexibility to continue therapy after relocation within the United Kingdom.
