About Brenda Clarke-Wills BSc (Hons) Psyche Open MBACP
Brenda Clarke-Wills BSc (Hons) Psyche Open MBACP offers a warm, non-judgemental therapeutic presence where individuals can explore their emotions and life circumstances. She supports clients to connect with their own intentions and to build greater self-awareness, viewing that awareness as central to a healthier sense of self. Through this reflective work she helps people understand the origins of recurring patterns so they can develop resilience, emotional regulation skills and pathways toward meaningful, lasting change.
With an integrative approach and three years of experience including training and volunteering, Brenda draws on psychodynamic methods to trace the roots of difficulties, cognitive behavioural techniques to create practical tools for shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and person-centred principles to keep the work focused on the client. This blend is adapted to each person’s preferences and circumstances so therapy remains relevant and client-led.
Brenda works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief and self-esteem issues. She also supports people dealing with trauma, boundaries, addictive patterns, caregiver stress and challenges linked to attachment. Holding a BSc (Hons) academic qualification and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she recognises the courage it takes to begin therapy and aims to respond to enquiries promptly and openly to help prospective clients decide whether she is the right fit for their journey.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Brenda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns; this approach is practical and often suited to addressing anxiety, depression and stress by teaching clear coping strategies. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early relationship experiences influence current connections and emotional responses, supporting work on relationship difficulties, attachment issues and patterns of dependency. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of feelings and bodily experience, which can assist with emotional regulation, reducing rumination and improving resilience.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Brenda works together with each person to understand their needs, goals and preferences and to adapt techniques so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single method. Registered professionals and therapists often blend methods to create a tailored plan that evolves over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, allowing people to engage from home or while traveling, fit sessions around work and family commitments, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access consistent support when needed.
