About me and my therapy practice

My name is Claire and I'm an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor which means that I have been trained, and have experience in, a variety of theoretical approaches which helps me to tailor the work we do to your needs.

I understand how difficult it can be to make the first steps towards counselling, and finding the right person for you is very important. It can feel daunting and building a strong trusted relationship is essential - you are the priority.

People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons - low mood, life events, perhaps we are struggling within our relationships, maybe we don't really know who we are, or have spent much of our life meeting the needs of others and neglecting ourselves. Together we can explore your thoughts and feelings, perhaps gaining some renewed clarity. What hurts or what matters most to you leads the way.

Practice description

In practice, psychotherapeutic counselling allows me to draw on a number of approaches where we focus on how you feel in the here and now, how the past may be affecting you, or perhaps some coping skills or ways to support yourself going forwards.

I am very aware of how our emotions affect our bodies, our nervous systems and our sense of feeling safe in the world and will bring this into the work where suitable and with your permission. Most of my work is centred around 1:1 face-to-face talking although if you would like to we could use some more creative tools to help explore your thoughts and feelings.

My first session

You'll probably have questions, and of course, it will be in meeting each other that we'll find out if I'm the right therapist for you.

​Email me and we can arrange a short exploratory phone call, free of any obligation to continue. We would then arrange an inital session.

If you then feel you would like to continue, and I have availability that suits your schedule, we would choose a weekly slot that would be yours for the duration of your therapy.

​Each therapy session lasts 50 minutes and usually takes place once a week at the same regular time.

I have a contract that sets out fees, timing, holidays and cancellation notice, all of which we can discuss in that first session. Feel free to ask me questions in your email as well.
