About John
John Clare is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. He offers a person-centred way of working and helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship issues and other life challenges. Sessions are presented plainly and focus on listening and practical next steps.
He uses Client-Centred Therapy to place the client's perspective at the centre of each session. That means conversations focus on what matters now, and on making small, practical changes that reduce tension or overwhelm. He also draws on experience from school and community settings to inform his approach.
His background includes work in education, social care and community services. That work has involved supporting emotional expression and regulation in children at an SEMH primary school, and those skills feed into how he talks through feelings with adults. He pays attention to patterns that come from early life and how they show up in today’s relationships.
In sessions he aims to help people understand their reactions, notice triggers for anger or anxiety, and practise different ways of responding. He supports people working through grief, trauma, addiction and identity questions as part of a broader set of concerns. He also addresses practical pressures such as career stress and caregiver strain.
Therapy is offered in English. John asks people to use the site’s matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and are managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Client-Centred work fits with online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says, helping them understand their own feelings and decide on practical next steps. It is useful for issues like anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and life transitions where clearer self-understanding can change how someone responds.In practice this means sessions are conversational rather than directive. The therapist encourages people to describe what feels most pressing, notices patterns that keep recurring, and supports trying different ways of reacting to difficult moments. This approach can be helpful for processing grief, trauma, identity questions and everyday stressors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to see if Client-Centred ways of working suit their goals and preferences. If adjustments are needed, they will discuss alternatives together so the approach matches what the client wants to achieve.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can attend from wherever they are in the UK. Registered or accredited professionals on the platform generally work with clients to arrange times and formats that suit everyday life.
