Clare Bridgman, NCPS

Clare Bridgman is an integrative therapist based in the United Kingdom who combines evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tailor support to each person she works with. She holds the NCPS credential, a recognised professional therapy qualification, and has four years of clinical experience supporting adults, couples and younger people.

Clare works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and depression. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment and attachment problems, blended family and communication challenges, body image, divorce and separation, drug and alcohol addiction, grief and loss, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Her practice includes addressing complex family dynamics, infidelity, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose that can arise during midlife.

Using an integrative approach, Clare adapts techniques to suit individual needs rather than applying a single method to everyone. She aims to create a non-judgmental, safe space where clients can explore what is happening for them and work toward clearer understanding and practical change. Clare looks forward to meeting prospective clients and helping them identify a path forward.

Integrative approaches and online support

Clare works with an integrative approach that draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques, combining methods to suit the needs of each client. This means she tailors sessions to focus on what will be most helpful, whether that involves exploring emotional patterns, developing coping skills, or addressing relationship dynamics.

She also offers attachment-focused work that helps clients understand how early relationships shape current connections, and targeted support for addictions and mood-related challenges that concentrates on changing unhelpful patterns and building practical strategies for everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Clare collaborates with clients to determine what fits best with their goals, values and preferences. Together they review progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - Clare provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support from a registered professional without the need to travel, helping clients maintain continuity of care alongside daily commitments.
