About Clarice

Clarice Pilikian is a BACP therapist (Registered Member MBACP) practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem and depression. Her background also includes helping those coping with caregiver stress, codependency, eating and food-related issues, and feelings of guilt or shame.

Clarice leans on a client-centred way of working. She listens, reflects, and helps people clarify what they are feeling and needing. Sessions aim to spotlight repeated patterns, such as people-pleasing or difficulty saying no, and to explore small practical steps that can reduce overwhelm.

She also uses solution-focused ideas to help clients notice what changes make a tangible difference. That can mean setting brief, achievable goals between sessions or trying new ways of responding in difficult moments. Clarice keeps explanations plain and action-oriented so people can try things outside of the room.

Her experience includes supporting people affected by shame, addiction-related harms, and the aftermath of abusive situations. She draws on this work to help clients strengthen internal boundaries and rebuild a clearer sense of self. Clarice encourages clients to name what matters to them and to experiment with new habits that protect their needs.

Sessions are conversational and paced to the individual. People who find themselves repeatedly putting others first often come to focus on saying no, managing guilt, and finding steadier emotional ground. Clarice helps people break stuck patterns and notice what works in everyday life.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting and following what the person brings. It helps people who feel stuck in others' demands to name their feelings and preferences without being told what to do. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical changes that make a difference quickly, such as trying a new response in a tense moment or setting a short goal for the week.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Clarice will work with the client to figure out which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress and challenges become clearer.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to try practical exercises between appointments and to review what did or did not help in everyday situations.
