About Sinead
Sinead Clarke-Adams is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and life changes. She offers a calm presence and practical conversation for those coping with loss, low self-esteem or difficult relationships. Sinead is a BACP member and works from a person-centred stance while drawing on other approaches when helpful.
She uses straightforward talk to help people make sense of trauma, childhood abuse and the ongoing effects of difficult past experiences.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with depression, survivors of domestic abuse, and those affected by harmful behaviour from others. Sinead has experience with addiction and with clients who have had a psychosis diagnosis. Her work often includes focusing on family problems, parenting strain, intimacy issues and career concerns.
She can help people address anger, feelings of isolation and questions about life purpose. Additional areas she has supported include attachment and abandonment worries, body image, and eating-related struggles. Sinead aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person.
Sessions are shaped around what you want to work on and how you prefer to approach it. She emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion in every meeting. People who choose to work with her find a collaborator who listens and helps them move forward step by step.
She understands that seeking help takes courage and aims to empower people as they make changes.
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
She often uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening carefully and following what matters most to you; this approach helps with anxiety, low mood and relationship worries by making space for your own priorities and pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is also used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small practical changes in the way you think and act, which many people find useful for stress and anxiety.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and suggest methods to try. You can expect a collaborative process where the plan is adjusted as you learn what helps.
Online therapy offers flexibility across formats like video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls allow visual connection for deeper conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in during a busy day and messaging is useful for ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, family life and other commitments.
