Claudia Nye

I strongly believe that positive relationships are key to growth and well-being. I provide a safe, non judgemental and confidential space for people to address their issues, be it relationship problems, trust, stress, anxiety, depression, ill health, loss, low self worth and more.

I am a BACP registered counsellor and a Relate trained Practitioner, as well as having studied Psychology in Buenos Aires and having an MA (Interactive Narratives as a Tool for Change). After years of work at Relate, with over 10,000 contact hours seeing individuals, couples and young people, I am confident I deliver a service that works.

I recognise that finding the right counsellor is key to achieving the outcome you would like. Therefore, I offer a free initial consultation. This is an opportunity for you to meet and decide if you would like to work together (please note free initial consultations are only available in the daytime appointment slots and are 30' long). The counselling session lasts 50'.

My private practice is close to York City Centre, with free on street parking and near to bus and rail routes. Above all, it is close to the river and I always recommend a walk along the river!

I provide a confidential, non judgemental space for clients to explore their issues safely. 

My practice is person centred, as well as integrative, incorporating psychodynamic and systemic theories. CBT, TA, Life Coaching and ART Therapy can also be thrown into the mix, depending on the client's needs.

In relationship counselling, the relationship is the patient and the couple are the clients. Based on what the client brings into the room, my style is interventionist, with the aim of equipping them with a toolkit to better cope with life's challenges.

The Initial Assessment is a free of charge 30' long session designed to find the best avenue of help for you, as well as giving you the opportunity to meet me and check whether you feel the therapeutic relationship would work for you.
