Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and practical, with time spent listening and helping clients find their own solutions. In appointments Claire often teaches straightforward techniques to ease immediate distress. These include simple ways to calm the body and reduce worry so people can think more clearly.

She balances short-term coping tools with conversations that help make sense of painful events. Claire pays close attention to feelings like guilt, shame and loneliness. She also helps with communication problems and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Her aim is to help people build resilience and feel more steady in day-to-day life. People who come to Claire can expect warm, attentive listening and a focus on practical steps that fit their life. She encourages clients to lead the session and chooses interventions to match each person's needs.

Claire works in English and practises in the United Kingdom, and she holds BACP accreditation.

Person-centred support delivered online

Client-centred or person-centred therapy focuses on understanding and acceptance. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and offers a supportive presence. This approach helps when someone feels overwhelmed, anxious or unsure about their next steps, and it aims to help people find their own solutions.

Alongside person-centred work, Claire uses practical calming techniques in sessions. These are simple exercises to soothe the body and reduce immediate feelings of anxiety or stress. They are useful for anyone needing short-term relief while also exploring deeper issues like grief, guilt or loneliness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Claire will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from wherever someone is based in the United Kingdom. Phone sessions can be easier when a lower bandwidth option is needed. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer typing to talking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
