Background and approach

Claire also addresses concerns such as ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, and life changes. Additional areas of focus include autism and Asperger syndrome, dissociation, panic attacks, seasonal affective disorder and sexual assault and abuse. Sessions are built around practical conversation and steady listening.

Claire helps clients untangle stressful thinking and notice patterns that keep them stuck. She encourages small, manageable steps that line up with each person’s goals and pace. Claire offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can pick the format that fits their life.

All work is conducted in English and she does not take international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the listed process. Fees vary with location and use a subscription model that may be cancelled at any time.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Claire uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and practical skills. Cognitive-style approaches help people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns that drive anxiety and low mood. These methods are useful for panic attacks, worry, and everyday stress because they teach ways to test thoughts and try new responses.

Trauma-informed care is another strand of her work, helping people who have experienced abuse or assault to manage intense emotions and reconnect with safety in daily life. For issues like dissociation or complex trauma this approach prioritises pacing and stabilising symptoms before moving to deeper processing.

Finding the right approach is something a client and Claire decide together. She will talk through goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then adapt techniques as needs change. The early sessions are often about building trust and choosing methods that suit the person and their situation.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and have a more conversational session. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text work for ongoing check-ins, brief reflections, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and caring responsibilities, while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
