She aims to help people untangle difficult feelings and find small, practical steps forward. Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth, with a focus on listening and making sense of what matters to you.
Claire works with difficulties such as grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and major life changes. She also supports people facing issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, body image struggles, communication problems and feelings of isolation.
Background and approach
Sessions are aimed at helping clients rebuild balance and regain a clearer sense of direction. Her approach brings together somatic ideas with attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. That means attention to sensations in the body, the patterns that shape close relationships, and a focus on the person’s own goals.
Mindfulness and emotionally-focused tools are used where they fit the person’s needs. Claire has five years of counselling experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works from the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.
Her practice is suited to people seeking steady, person-focused support through change and recovery. Sessions offer practical coping strategies alongside space to process painful memories and emotions. Claire encourages clients to notice what feels helpful and to try small changes between meetings.
She guides people toward clearer choices and renewed emotional balance.
How therapeutic approaches fit into online work
Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and how the body holds feelings. It can help when emotions feel stuck, or when trauma shows up as tension, numbness or overwhelm. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at recurring patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it can be useful for people who struggle with trust, abandonment or repeating relationship difficulties.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s own experience and goals at the centre of sessions. The therapist offers empathic listening and reflection, helping clients find their own answers and move at their own pace. Claire uses these approaches flexibly and will work with each person to decide what fits best for their needs and preferences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire treats therapy as a collaborative process and will discuss different ways of working together. Together they will review what feels most useful, adjust methods as needed and set goals that matter to the client.
Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and easier access from home. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different comfort levels and life rhythms. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care while balancing day-to-day commitments.
