About Clare

Clare Grey is a licensed independent social worker with 18 years of practice. She draws on hospital and outpatient experience to help people facing life changes, anxiety, depression, and stress. Clare uses straightforward, practical strategies in sessions and focuses on what a person needs right now.

She has worked in education, employment support, medical and psychiatric settings, oncology care, and women’s health. That background shaped how she approaches problems that come from illness, caregiving, work transitions, and aging.

Background and approach

Clare is comfortable talking about career concerns and the strain that caregiving or medical issues can bring. Clare describes her style as trauma-focused while keeping things concrete. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with motivational interviewing and client-centered care.

Sessions often include learning new ways to handle thoughts and feelings, setting small goals, and practicing different behaviors between meetings. The Gottman Method is part of her toolkit for helping people manage relationship difficulties and improve communication patterns. Attachment-based ideas also inform how she looks at emotional needs and closeness.

Mindfulness practices are used when people want tools to reduce reactivity and stay present. She aims for a calm, supportive atmosphere and clear steps toward change. Clare helps people break problems into manageable tasks and track progress.

Many clients leave sessions with concrete skills to use during stressful days.

Online support

How these approaches work online

Clare uses practical methods that translate well to online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and actions and teaches tools to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and reducing conflict in close relationships by teaching specific interaction skills. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early bonding shapes current emotional needs and helps people build more supported ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Clare will talk about goals and try strategies together to see what helps most. She adapts tools over time, so the plan can shift as progress and needs change.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy or changing life.
