Megan Clarke , BACP

Megan Clarke is a warm, person-centred counsellor who combines a pluralistic outlook with practical support to meet each person where they are. She is BACP-registered and holds a Master’s in Counselling and Psychotherapy from the University of Keele, and she brings three years of experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, identity questions, and relationship concerns. Megan adapts her approach to the needs and preferences of the individual, offering collaborative, respectful sessions that prioritise being heard and understood.

Megan’s practice covers a broad range of needs, including stress and coping with life changes, relationship and intimacy-related issues - including non-monogamy and polyamory - grief, parenting and family dynamics, eating and sleeping difficulties, and challenges linked to chronic illness. She also works with trauma and abuse recovery, anger, career concerns, and compassion fatigue. As a sex-positive and kink-aware therapist who affirms LGBTQIA+ identities, she aims to create a non-judgemental space where clients do not have to explain or justify their identity, lifestyle, or values.

Sessions are tailored to what each person finds most helpful - whether that means setting goals, exploring past experiences, focusing on present challenges, or working with practical tasks. Megan describes therapy as a collaborative process and seeks to find an approach that feels safe, useful, and aligned with the client’s goals.

Client-Centred and Solution-Focused Support Online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of the work - the therapist listens with empathy, reflects what they hear, and supports the client to explore feelings and make sense of experiences. This approach suits people who want a respectful, non-directive space to process anxiety, identity questions, relationship struggles, or grief.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what is working and what small, practical steps can move a person toward their goals. It is action-oriented and helpful for clients seeking relief from stress, improving coping strategies, resolving specific relationship or career issues, or moving past feeling stuck.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Megan will work collaboratively with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she will adjust the style of sessions as those needs evolve. The aim is a flexible partnership that honours the client’s priorities.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people balancing busy lives or limited mobility. Sessions can take place by video call or phone, and there are options for live chat or ongoing text-based messaging when that format is more suitable. These methods increase accessibility and scheduling flexibility while allowing therapists and licensed professionals to maintain a consistent therapeutic relationship across different formats.
