About Sinead
Sinead Clarke-Adams is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage depression and related challenges. She works in the United Kingdom and brings three years of professional experience to sessions. Sinead aims to offer a calm, respectful space where people can talk about what matters most to them.
Sinead mainly uses a person-centred approach. That means she listens carefully and follows the pace a person needs. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness when they suit someone’s goals.
Background and approach
People come to her for help with stress, anxiety, grief and the after-effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports those coping with low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, parenting strain, and the emotional impact of addiction or eating issues.
Sinead has experience supporting people who have faced domestic abuse and narcissistic behaviours, and she has worked with clients with psychosis and alcohol-related problems. She also speaks from lived experience around eating disorders and autism, and uses that perspective sensitively in sessions. Her style is warm and straightforward.
She will tailor conversations and practical tools to the person in front of her. The first steps are simply to describe what’s worrying you and agree on small, achievable aims. If someone prefers working remotely, Sinead offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs and routines.

Online support
She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of reacting. This approach can be useful for depression, anxiety and stress when someone wants structured tools and clear tasks to practise.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sinead will collaborate with you to decide which methods feel most useful, adapting her style to your needs and preferences. That means trying things for a few sessions and checking in about what helps and what doesn’t.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video works well for conversation that benefits from visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins, writing things out, or fitting a session into a busy day. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
