Her style emphasises respect, sensitivity and steady encouragement. She uses a mix of evidence-based approaches to guide her work. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people to clarify values and take small steps that matter.

Therapeutic approaches and online counselling

Claire uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice and change thinking patterns that make symptoms worse. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep and some eating or anger issues. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-led steps even when feelings are hard. That approach can help with grief, chronic pain and coping with life changes. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Claire will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest a way forward. The choice of method is collaborative and can change as needs evolve. The original biography does not list the exact online formats Claire uses, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people meet from different locations, including international clients. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can explain which format will suit your schedule and needs during initial booking.
