About Clare

Clare Pruen works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, eating concerns, grief and anger using a person-centred approach. She is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and has seven years' experience as a counsellor.

Clare trained as a Person-Centred Counsellor after a long career as a holistic therapist. Her earlier qualifications include a degree in Health Science with Complementary Therapies and training in aromatherapy, reiki and crystal therapy. She describes her background as involving mind, body and spirit influences and brings that perspective into sessions when relevant.

She has a private practice in the United Kingdom and sees people who want help with eating disorders, relationship pressures and bereavement. Clare also specialises in counselling survivors of domestic abuse, including physical, mental, emotional, sexual and historic abuse.

In sessions she works in a person-centred way, which focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns. The work aims to allow people to talk through their experiences and to find their own ways forward.

Her practice follows the professional standards of the BACP. Clare accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Before booking, people should confirm the current session formats offered.

How Clare's person-centred approach works remotely

Person-Centred Therapy places the person's perspective at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and supports the person to find their own insights and choices. This approach can help with difficulties such as anxiety, depression, grief and relationship concerns.

Clare's background in health science and holistic therapies informs how she responds, but the sessions remain focused on the person's priorities. Deciding which way of working suits someone is part of the early meetings. Clare will discuss goals and preferences and agree a way forward together with the person.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, for example by avoiding travel or allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day. It can also let people meet with a registered or accredited professional from a different area or country when that is helpful.
