Claire Booth

I currently have availability.

I believe we are all unique and as an integrative therapist I draw on various approaches to suit the individual needs of my clients.

My approach is of a humanistic/person-centred nature. Together we will focus on self-development, personal growth, recognise strengths and empower you to make informed choices.

I am passionate about supporting children and young people to explore their mental health challenges, and enable them to be more resilient and cope with whatever issues and concerns they face in life.

As awareness around positive mental health grows, I believe therapy is not just for times of crisis. Engaging in regular therapy can contribute to keeping our minds fit and healthy. 

I have experience working with children, young people and adults through creative and talking therapy, covering a wide range of mental health issues for a community interest company.

As a qualified Creative Counsellor, I work creatively with children and young people as it can often be a struggle for them to verbalise their experiences. For example, using clay, paint, sand and nesting dolls can help break through that barrier.

In addition, I am a trained Rewind Therapist. The ‘rewind technique’ is a safe treatment that can significantly reduce, and in some instances eradicate traumatic or phobic symptoms. The guided sessions are comfortable and relaxing, and there is no requirement to talk about the details of the trauma. 

It’s important to find the right counsellor in order to build a trusting relationship. I offer a 20 minute telephone consultation to discover if we both feel we can work together. Following on from the consultation we can agree a suitable appointment either face to face, online or at an agreed walk and talk location. Sessions are 50 minutes long for all sessions.
